Indy Half Marathon at Fort Ben

The Indy Half Marathon at Fort Ben includes a timed "Kill the Hill" climb near mile 11, a 320-meter push on Harrison Trace Trail by Delaware Lake. This Indianapolis race, held in October, features a 13.1-mile half marathon, a 10K, a 5K, and a Kids One Mile Run, suitable for walkers, first-timers, families, and those seeking a challenge. The half marathon is the primary race, but the hill segment adds difficulty. Separate awards are given for the fastest Youth, Open, and Masters runners on this climb. The race is organized by Beyond Monumental, a nonprofit focused on Indianapolis road racing, with proceeds benefiting youth health and well-being programs. Participants receive a medal, a race shirt, post-race food, and a drink. The INDYTHON program connects this race with other Beyond Monumental events for those completing multiple races in a season.
