Event summary

Get ready for the Groundhog 7-miler/5-miler hosted by Indy Runners on Sunday, February 2, 2025, at Zionsville High School in Zionsville, Indiana. This exciting event offers participants the option to choose between a 7-mile or 5-mile race distance, with the added bonus of a virtual race for those unable to attend in person. With a time cut off of 14:00 per mile pace for the 7-miler, participants will enjoy a scenic course along the Rail Trail with a slight extension to the north. The event aims to raise funds for the Zionsville Food Pantry, with last year's race raising $3500 for the cause. Join us for a day of racing, fun, and giving back to the community!

Organiser's Description

We had another great time last year with our newest version of the Groundhog! Thanks to your generosity, we were able to raise another $3500 for the Zionsville Food Pantry. We've once again added a "Virtual Groundhog" for those who would like to support the cause, but can't make it on race day.

And back by popular demand, it's the 7-mile version of the Groundhog! We'll be back to our old ways of offering a 7-mile option and our 5-mile option - utilizing the Rail Trail with a bit of extension farther to the north.

TIME CUT OFF: We do need to ask for folks wanting to do the 7-miler to keep up a 14:00 per mile pace. Our course sentry at Mulberry Street (Mile 4.5) will be diverting everyone after that to just take the 5-mile route back to the high school.

RACE DAY: Sunday, February 2, 2025 (On Groundhog's Day this year!)

START TIME: 1:00pm

LOCATION: Zionsville High School - 1001 Mulberry Street, Zionsville, Indiana 46077

NOTE: Admittedly, the 5-mile route is a touch long by about 0.2-miles...so you get a little bonus fun for your money. :)

Special Thanks to Zionsville Community High School for being our long time host and the Zionsville Food Pantry as our beneficiary. We'll still be collecting mostly monetary donations to support the food pantry this year, but they will be on site again to scoop up any additional canned food items our participants might also bring along.

Thanks again for all the great support over the years. We're looking forward to another fun day of racing and giving back.
