The 6th Annual Flannel 5K & 1-Mile Run is heading back to Beutter Park, taking runners and walkers along the beautiful Riverwalk in Mishawaka, Indiana! Choose between a 1-mile run, starting at 8:45 AM, or the 5K, kicking off at 9:05 AM.
Packet pickup will be available:
This is a chip-timed event, and all participants will receive a finisher medal. Awards will be given to the top male and female finishers in both the 1-mile and 5K races. Event shirts will be available for purchase at the race store while supplies last—once they’re gone, they’re gone, so don’t wait!
And of course… don’t forget to wear your flannel!
We will continue to proudly partner with the South Bend Center for the Homeless by collecting new or gently used coats, hats, and gloves at Fleet Feet Mishawaka from December 1st - December 11th, or at Chicory Café during the race on December 12th.

Learn more about the host city, Mishawaka.
Mishawaka is in Northern Indiana. The town is named after Princess Mishawaka of the Potowatomi tribe. Its adjacent twin city is South Bend, Indiana, which is west of the city. The St. Joseph River runs through downtown where a new riverwalk is still being constructed. Though South Bend has a great deal to offer in terms of tourist attractions, Mishawaka also has quite a few things to see and do. Notre Dame and South Bend are a short drive away if boredom begins to take over.
