Event Description

On Saturday, May 7th, 2021, the Shipshewana Mayfest Road Run will be taking place as part of Shipshewana's Annual Mayfest celebration.  The event will feature two races designed for runners of all ages and experience levels.

We will kick things off at 8:15 a.m. with the 1 Mile Fun Run. The race will begin at 345 North Morton Street at the Wolfe Building. From there, they will head North on the newly completed Morton Street extension to North Village Drive. They will turn right onto Village Drive and continue to the Shipshewana Fitness Center, which is the turn-around point. The runners will then head back to the finish line, which is also where they originally started. Prizes will be awarded to the top three boys and girls, and all kids will take home a goody bag. At 8:30 am, the 5K Shipshewana Road Run begins at 345 North Morton Street at the Wolfe Building.  Immediately following the race, prizes will be awarded to the top three men and women overall, and the top three in each age division. 

Both races will be electronically timed, and walkers are welcome in each.  Free snacks and drinks will also be available after the race for all participants.
