About this race
Outrun Krampus: The Sunset 5K Challenge
Brace yourself for a unique, twilight 5K cross country race. We're setting the course on the beautiful Pike Red Devil XC Course, a hidden slice of nature tucked behind Eastbrook Elementary in the heart of Indianapolis.
The CHALLENGE? The run begins just before sundown. Your mission is simple: Beat the setting sun and outpace Krampus's "season's beatings" to the finish line. It's a fun, challenging dash against the approaching darkness and the Krampus! (NOTE: If you think you may be out past sundown please bring a light to finish the course - not all parts of the course are lit.)
