Back Your Badge Marathon

Website

The Back Your Badge Marathon, held in Plainfield, Indiana, is a community-focused race supporting local Public Safety Agencies including Police, Fire, and 911 Communications. The event offers multiple distances: a full marathon (26.2 miles), half marathon (13.1 miles), 5k, and a Kids Fun Run for ages 11 and under. The courses highlight Plainfield’s features, running along historic US 40, shaded greenway trails, iron bridges, parks, and even through a fire station bay.

Participants choose an agency to support, with each mile contributing to that agency’s total for a traveling trophy. Proceeds benefit public safety programs, youth assistance, and paramedic scholarships, creating a spirited and meaningful race atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
