The Independence Day celebration in Topeka, Indiana is a grand tradition. Each year, the tiny town comes alive with festivities including a fireworks display, a parade, basketball and softball tournaments, food vendors, kids' games, and a watermelon eating competition. But before these festivities, join us for the Road Run.
Begun in 1974, the road run is the oldest consecutively run race in the state. This year's race will take place on Thursday, July 4th at the Topeka East Park located at 510 E Lake Street.
Medals will be awarded to the top three boys and girls in the kid's run. Prizes will be given to the top three men and women overall in the 5K as well as to the top finisher in each of the age divisions. Age groups include 1-12, 13-15, 16-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, and 65+
Race Day registration is available. T-shirts are given on a first come, first served basis. Race Day packet pick-up starts at 7:00 AM in the parks pavilion.
