This event has something for everyone. If you are looking for a super-fast fall race ~ this is it! If you are looking for something low key and just for fun ~ this is it! The Half Marathon is flat and all downhill from Indianola to Carlisle. It’s on a certified course that is an old rail trail with beautiful views. The 10k and 5k are flat and fast too. Medals to everyone, super soft shirts, biscuits & gravy, pie, and lots more to celebrate when you reach the finish line in Carlisle. Carlisle is one of the friendliest small towns in Iowa. Our Hillbilly volunteers will show you a good time. All for a good cause. See the link below for more info. Only $55 for the Half & $35 for the 10k or 5k.

Troop 178 Fun Run
This Fun Run event is our troops only fundraiser. We have been doing this run every year. There’s a 5k for the older kids and adults, then a 1mile run for the younger kids. There are many prizes to be won at the end, and trophies for the different age groups. We provide drinks and fruit and entertainment. All participants get a tshirt and bag of goodies. All proceeds go to the scouts for the cost of campouts, badges, special events, and equipment.
