The City of Fishers is taking over the Geist Half Marathon with a new fall date in 2023, Saturday, September 16. The city is partnering with Geist Half Marathon to stage the 5K and half-marathon event.
“I’m incredibly excited to continue the tradition of Geist Half Marathon for the community,” said Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness in a city news release. “This is an opportunity to reimagine the race with participants and the community first and foremost. We’re grateful for the service of the Geist Half Marathon board members all these years as we embark on the next chapter of this tradition to build a stronger culture of health in Fishers.”
The 2023 Geist Half Marathon will feature 13.1-mile and 5-kilometer races, with optional VIP registration and volunteer opportunities. Special, limited-time registration offers of $49.99 for the half marathon and $29.99 for the 5K are available through January 4, 2023. Participants may register at geisthalf.com.
In 2008, a group of Geist Reservoir residents created the Geist Half Marathon to share their passion for health, wellness, and community building. The Half Marathon is unique in its topography, scenery, and community support along the course. Geist Half Marathon board members have now transitioned operations and management of the race to the City of Fishers. In partnership with Vision Event Management.
