500 Festival Miler Series
The 500 Festival Miler Series, presented by OrthoIndy, is a three-race training series held at Fowling Warehouse Indianapolis. The series is intended for runners to gauge training progress and practice race-day strategies such as hydration, pacing, and fueling. Participation does not require registration for the Mini-Marathon.
The series includes these distances:
- 3-Miler - February 13
- 6-Miler - March 13
- 10-Miler - April 10
Each race starts and finishes at Fowling Warehouse Indianapolis, 1125 E Brookside Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46202. The venue provides packet pickup, gear check, sponsor booths, space for warm up and stretching, and free on-site parking. Post-race activities and refreshments are available at the venue.
Registration options include individual race entry, full series registration, and virtual participation for a missed date. Full series registrants receive a long-sleeved participant shirt and a finisher’s medal; those benefits are not available with individual race registrations. On-site registration is available the morning of each race.
Course support features mile markers, clocks, water stations, Gatorade Endurance Pit Areas, course entertainment, and official results posted after each race. The start and finish are located near downtown Indianapolis. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
