Hit the Bricks Run/Walk

We are excited to announce that the Zionsville Food Pantry will be our highlighted local charity this year, and Hit the Bricks fundraising will be contributing a large portion of funds to this worthy organization after the race. The Zionsville Optimist Club plans to spotlight other local charities that support children in the Zionsville/Boone County area in future years.

This event is our largest Optimist Club fundraiser for the year. Money raised supports several local organizations and programs including;

Graduating ZCHS Senior scholarships / Sponsorships of local youth sports / Optimist Club Oratorical Contest / 3rd Grade Zionsville History Program  / Funding for Textbook, Sports and Musical Instrument Assistance / Boone County Boys & Girls Club / 4-H / The HAWK Foundation / Morning Dove Therapeutic Riding / So Big Mountain House Maternity Home / ZCHS After Prom Event / Holiday Gifts for Families in Need / Rehabilitation Hospital of Indiana / Sylvia's Child / Zionsville Food Pantry

The race start/finish is at Zionsville Town Hall. The route will be similar to previous years and will include running the rail trail and Zionsville's brick main street.

Great looking shirts will be included with your registration through Wednesday, September 17! Be sure to register by that day to guarantee your shirt!

Shirts/sizes may be limited starting Thursday, September 18.

Gift cards will be provided for overall mens and women's first, second and third place finishers.
There will be age-group awards for the top finisher in each age group of the 5k.
