Step Up for Students 5K and Fun Run
About this race
Our 2nd annual 5K is scheduled for May 31, 2026 at Mack Park here in beautiful Indiana PA! More details will continue to be updated but one thing is for sure - we are going BIGGER and BETTER this year!
Our race route will take you from Mack Park through IUP and the fairgrounds, and our fun run will be on the track. Start time is expected to be 9am! This year we have partnered with the YMCA of Indiana County so that ALL race participants can swim at Mack Pool for FREE after the run! We have SO MUCH more fun planned - our FOAM CANNON will be deployed after the race and KONA ICE will be on site! Romeo's is providing PIZZA & SALAD for all participants!! We're excited to welcome back hello Concierge and are looking forward to taking amazing pictures in their photo booth!
We can't wait to see you there!
Shirts Deadline: T-shirts are guaranteed when you register by May 14th!
Packet Pickup: More information will be provided soon! We will have a packet pickup available in Indiana the day(s) preceding the race.
Parking: There are several parking options at Mack Park on the morning of the race: the lot at the pavilion, at the pool, or in the lower lot down by the grandstand.
