Middlebury Summer Festival 5k and 1 mile

The Middlebury Summer Festival 5k and 1 mile begins by East Park on State Street in Middlebury, Indiana, as part of the town's Annual Summer Festival. This community race morning offers three main options: a 5K run/walk, a 1 mile kids run for ages 4 to 12, and a competitive mile for runners 13 and older. The mile races start first, followed shortly by the 5K. Both races use electronic timing by Watt's my timing. The route details are limited, but the start area is centered on East Park, with registration, check-in, and packet pickup also located there. The event is designed for families, younger runners, walkers, and competitive local runners: children 5 and under require an adult in the mile, while the 5K is open to ages 7 to 99. Race proceeds benefit the Northridge Middle and High School Cross Country programs. Awards are extensive for a race of this size, including overall and age-group prizes in the 5K, top-five awards in both mile divisions, prize drawings, and cash bonuses for breaking course records: 14:27 and 18:49 in the 5K, and 4:45 and 5:46 in the competitive mile.
