Don’t Be a Scrooge! Register for Santa Hustle Indy
The holiday fun will take place on December 3, and event organizers are currently seeking a charity beneficiary to partner with them.
Celebrate the season with thousands of festive walkers and runners who will fill the streets of Indianapolis with holiday cheer during the Indy Santa Hustle Half Marathon, 5K and Kids Rudolph Run Sunday, December 3 at White River State Park. The event kicks off at 8:30 a.m. when youth participants will dash through their course, followed by the half marathon at 9 a.m. and the 5K at 9:05 a.m. The Santa Hustle Race Series is currently looking for a charity beneficiary to partner with them for this event.
‘Tis the season to be jolly! Participants can enjoy cookie and candy stations along the course, while holiday music spreads some festive cheer around Indy’s infamous park. Adult participants can jingle all the way to the finish line in hoodies and fleece headbands, included with registration, and can also add numerous package upgrades - if they wish to do so. Rudolph Run participants receive a long sleeve Santa shirt, Santa hat, Santa beard, race bib and finisher medal.
The course will run along White River State Park’s canal pathway, which includes seven world-class attractions, including the Indianapolis Zoo, Victory Field, museums and more! If you are unable to attend the event in-person, virtual options are also available.
