We had another great time last year at the Groundhog! Thanks to your generosity, we were able to raise another $4000+ 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 we'll continue to 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 1, 2026
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.
