Running for Children's Rights to Both Parents - 11 of 50 Half Marathons in 50 States - Indiana 2026

The Indiana event for Running for Children's Rights to Both Parents begins at 18 North Capitol Avenue in Indianapolis. Participants can complete an in-person half marathon between morning and midnight Eastern Time. This is Run 11 of a 50-state half marathon series, with one half marathon held each month. The event also provides virtual 5K, 10K, and half marathon options, allowing supporters outside Indiana to participate by running, walking, or moving within their own communities. Virtual runners do not have a shared course; each participant selects a local route while supporting the same cause. Bob, the founder of Mothers and Fathers Truly Matter, runs the Indiana half marathon in person, while supporters nationwide participate remotely. The series aims to raise awareness about parental alienation, family court practices that separate children from a parent, and the lasting emotional, psychological, and developmental harm that can result. The core message is that children should have reasonable access to both parents, and family court decisions should prioritize the child's well-being.
