Join Us for the Miler Series!

The 500 Festival Miler Series, presented by OrthoIndy, is your ideal training series for the Mini-Marathon! This three-race series (3-Miler, 6-Miler, and 10-Miler) is perfect for gauging your training progress, practicing race-day strategies (hydration, pacing, fueling), meeting fellow runners, and having fun while earning swag.

Everyone Is Welcome!

These races are designed to bring people together, foster a sense of accomplishment, work towards a goal, and experience the excitement of a race. You don’t need to be registered for the Mini-Marathon to participate. Whether preparing for a race or just looking to stay active and achieve your fitness goals, these events are for you.

Location

The Fowling Warehouse Indianapolis
1125 E Brookside Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46202

Each race will start and finish at Fowling Warehouse Indianapolis, where participants can enjoy pre-race activities such as packet pickup, gear check, and sponsor booths. The venue offers a great atmosphere for warming up, stretching, and post-race celebrations. Free parking is available on-site, and participants are encouraged to stay and enjoy the post-race activities at Fowling Warehouse!

Registration Options

Participants are encouraged to register for the full Miler Series to maximize their race experience. Registering for the full series includes entry to all three events, along with a long-sleeved participant shirt and a finisher’s medal – benefits not available with individual race registrations. While individual race registration is an option, choosing the full series provides a better value and complete training journey. If a participant cannot attend one of the dates, they can participate virtually.

Registration will also be available on-site the morning of each race, or you can register for an individual race in the series using the link below:
