Our Cause:

We will be celebrating running this year at our annual Michiana Running Festival on July 29th by highlighting local races and running in our local community. Make this your one-stop shop for your 2023-2024 race calendar. Local races will be present, incentivizing you to sign up for their events. In addition to the individual races that will be present, our shoe brand partners will be there as well. They will be holding demo opportunities and talking about any new tech and just be available to geek out with those of you that want to talk shoes or just try on the latest models. As if all of that wasn't exciting enough, we will be drawing raffles after the fun run. The raffles could be anything from a free race entry to a free pair of shoes. You'll be able to obtain raffle tickets that you can drop in the raffle of your choice by either signing up for a race, participating in a shoe demo, or purchasing additional raffle tickets. And what good would a running festival be without an actual running event? We look forward to spreading the joy of running and community with you this year!
