We are more excited than ever for the 10th Annual Rib-Fest 5k Run/Walk & Kids Riblet Run! The Rib Run 5k will start at 9AM, and then as a part of the grand opening for the day long festival the Kids Riblet Run will take off promptly at 10AM. We all know it is warm in late June, but there really is no better way to get in those morning miles than with lots of friends starting Rib-Fest. The course is flat as can be (hello Indiana!), and perfect for runner/walkers of all abilities. After you finish the whole festival is open and ready for fun!  Enjoy delicious post race treats (receive a $5 coupon towards food or drinks), enjoy the inflatables, stick around to listen to live entertainment and more! The Rib Run 5k is the perfect summer race to keep you training through the season, and making memories with family & friends! We can't wait to host you at the 10th annual Rib Run!
