Run the Monon (hosted by Indy Runners and Walkers)

Run the Monon Indy Runners and Walkers - Long Run & Picnic Sheridan/Carmel to Broad Ripple Version Join us for the most fun on a long run, "Run the Monon"! Continuing our "rotation" between Downtown versions and exploring the northernmost section from Sheridan - this year we'll be starting in Sheridan! We'll start at Marott Park in Broad Ripple (park at Park Tudor School across College Ave), load up buses in that parking lot and bus up to our Starts = at Biddle Memorial Park in Sheridan for the 20-milers or the Lowes on 146th/Carmel for the 12-milers, then Run/Walk back down to Marott Park. There are two available distances: 20 miles and 12 miles. Note: This is NOT a race - it is untimed and no traffic restrictions are in place - but rather a unique chance to get in a long training run with a group of friends and enjoy a fun route. Then relax with lunch afterward. QUESTIONS? Contact Jennifer Courtney at runthemonon@indyrunners.org . PARKING Park at Park Tudor School, College Ave in Broad Ripple.
