The suspension of these events is in accordance with the CDC’s updated guidance to cancel\, postpone or provide virtual options for all large events for the next 8 weeks in an attempt to slow the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus). The 500 Festival is doing everything possible to minimize the economic impact and ramifications that will be experienced as a result of canceling these in-person events. \nAll 2020 Indy Mini events will move to virtual races. Individuals registered for this year’s races will receive details on how to participate virtually and still earn their 2020 shirt and medal. Other options\, including lending a hand in support of the 500 Festival’s free programs for kids or rolling registration over to next year\, was emailed to participants on March 19. The in-person events will NOT take place.   https://www.indymini.com/p/mini-marathon/expo \n  \nOriginal Post:  The 500 Festival Mini-Marathon Expo jump starts the OneAmerica 500 Festival Mini-Marathon weekend for both participants and the general public. Because the Mini-Marathon race packets are not mailed to the participants\, all Mini-Marathon and 5K runners/walkers are required to pick up their race packets at the Expo. The packets include the runner’s bib race number\, Bib-timing device\, participant shirt and other important information. The Expo is a great opportunity for everyone to enjoy the excitement that builds to the Mini-Marathon on Saturday and provides an opportunity for the general public to learn about the latest in health and fitness gear. \nThursday\, April 30: 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm\nFriday\, May 1: 10:00 am to 9:00 pm URL:https://www.indyambassadors.org/event/500-festival-mini-marathon-expo/ LOCATION:Lucas Oil Stadium\, 500 South Capitol\, Indianapolis\, IN\, 46225\, United States CATEGORIES:Volunteer ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.indyambassadors.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Volunteer-Program-Logo-3.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="500 Festival":MAILTO:emiller@500festival.com GEO:39.7601007;-86.1638877 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Lucas Oil Stadium 500 South Capitol Indianapolis IN 46225 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=500 South Capitol:geo:-86.1638877,39.7601007 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20200502T050000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20200502T140000 DTSTAMP:20260502T072930 CREATED:20200109T234756Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200409T164256Z UID:10003871-1588395600-1588428000@www.indyambassadors.org SUMMARY:OneAmerica 500 Festival Mini-Marathon and Delta Dental 5k DESCRIPTION:UPDATED:   COVID-19: many events have been canceled or postponed\, please check with the organizer for the event status. \n\n\n\nOriginal Post:  On the first Saturday of May\, 35\,000+ runners\, joggers\, walkers and wheelchair racers\, will take over the streets of downtown Indianapolis for The Greatest Spectacle in Running – the Indy Mini. This epic race starts in the heart of downtown Indianapolis like only we could – with an IndyCar leading off each wave. The flat\, fast course is packed with thousands of the nicest volunteers you’ll ever meet and nearly 100 course entertainment acts. What makes the OneAmerica 500 Festival Mini-Marathon even more special is that the course includes a lap around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (you know\, home of the Indy 500). As participants reach the Speedway’s Yard of Bricks\, many will stop to kneel and kiss the bricks. Funny tradition? Maybe. But tradition is what we’re all about!
