About this race
As a fixture in the Indianapolis running community, this 5K is run on a fast and flat course surrounding Franklin Central High School. A fun 2k for younger runners starts following the 5k start.
Following the FAST FLASH, we are excited to continue the Back-2-School Bash! B2S Bash Fun includes the popular Splash Tower, where you can splash your favorite principal or teacher, Air-Brush Tattoos, Sport-Zone, Photo-Zone, Game-Zone, Cornhole Tournament, IMPD Mounted Patrol, IMPD Motorcycle Drill Team, Idnaian State Police helicopter, & more! Our School partners will have representatives and information available – Plus School Mascots for fun photo ops!
Join your neighbors, community leaders, and our schools for exercise and fun!
The Fast Flash is hosted by and benefits the Franklin Township Education Foundation.
