Event Details

The GIANT 5K Memorial Day Moto Run/Walk is a fundraiser organized by the cadets of Ben Davis High School Marine Corps JROTC. It is scheduled for Monday, May 25, 2026, at 1200 N Girls School Rd in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Event Format

This is a non-timed 5 km moto-run/walk. A moto-run involves a military style formation run with cadets calling motivational cadences from start to finish. Participants can choose to run with the formation, at their own pace, or join and leave the formation as desired.

Course and Support

The course loops around the school campus on hard surface, with some grass terrain available. Cadets are spread along the route to motivate and guide participants, and water stations are provided. Medics are onsite, and local recruiters from all branches of the military are present to offer information about military service.

Ceremony and Registration

Prior to the run, a service is held to honor fallen service members. Registration opens for t-shirt and challenge coin pick-up; these items can be purchased separately, but supplies are limited.

Fundraising Purpose

Proceeds support the Ben Davis MCJROTC Drill, Rifle, and Raider Teams in their efforts to compete at the national level. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
