About the race
Sam Costa Half Marathon and Quarter Marathon, held in Carmel, Indiana, at Northview Church (Carmel Campus), is the oldest race in the state and the flagship event of Indy Runners and Walkers. The event offers two distances—half marathon and quarter marathon—designed to suit early-season fitness and spring ambitions. The race emphasizes a welcoming, club-driven atmosphere with a volunteer-led, not-for-profit organization; pre- and post-race activities are hosted in the church’s indoor space.
Net proceeds support the local running community, including high school scholarships and health-promotion programs. A three-hour time limit keeps the course accessible, with walkers encouraged to choose the shorter distance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
