Indy Runners Charity XC Challenge
The Indy Runners Charity XC Challenge is an annual cross-country event held in Indianapolis. The race takes place on the Brebeuf HS XC Course, located at 2801 W. 86th Street. This event serves as a fundraiser where half of the entry fee is donated directly to charitable organizations. Participants can choose to join one of five existing anchor teams or establish their own charity team to support a cause of their choice.
The event structure utilizes cross-country scoring and an age-graded percentage system. This system is designed to provide a balanced competition across various age groups and genders. The remaining portion of the entry fees is collected into a central fund, which is distributed to teams based on their performance in the race.
The course is designed for cross-country running and walking, and the event features the following distance:
- 5 km (cross-country)
Since its inception, the challenge has raised over $24,000 for various charitable causes. The race is organized by Indy Runners and focuses on community involvement through team recruitment and charitable giving. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
