Indy Half Marathon at Fort Ben 30th Year

The Indy Half Marathon at Fort Ben is celebrating its 30th year—starting and finishing on the historic parade grounds at Fort Benjamin Harrison!

This large parade field was the hub of military training and activity, bordered by early 20th-century Colonial Revival buildings. Today, the former officers’ homes on the west side are beautifully restored residences, while the east side’s old barracks are being transformed into vibrant businesses and housing.

Saturday, Oct. 4 — Race Weekend Highlights:

- Half Marathon • 10K • 5K • Kids One Mile Run

- Fire pits & a pancake breakfast

- Post-race celebration with food, drinks & entertainment

The Kids One Mile Run (ages 4–10) is the perfect way to spark a love of fitness as kids circle Lawton Loop and experience the thrill of crossing the finish line.
