Go the Extra Mile with Team Monumental Kids
Turn your miles into something bigger. Team Monumental Kids (TMK) is our official charity team for the CNO Financial Indianapolis Monumental Marathon, Half Marathon, & 5K.
This team is made up of runners who dedicate their training and race day miles to support local students. Every dollar raised helps provide access to the school-based running program, its curriculum, and the culminating 5K experience – and costs just $150 to support one student.
How it works:
1) Apply to participate in the distance of your choice (Monumental Marathon, Half Marathon, or 5K)
2) Create your fundraising page
3) Share your story and raise support
Plus, earn exclusive fundraising perks along the way like registration reimbursement, VIP experiences, and MORE [CTA].
