  The Hickory Hustle 5K & 10K Run and Kids Run is back for 2026! Join us in Colfax, Indiana during Ole Hickory Days beginning with a fish fry on Friday, July 31st and continuing Saturday, August 1st, 2026. The 5K and 10K on Saturday, August 1st begins at 8:30am and includes a Kids Run beginning at 9:00am. All participants who sign up by July 12th are guaranteed a shirt.

  The theme of the race this year is in memory of Joe Buedel, a long time resident of Colfax, an Elder and Youth Leader at Colfax Christian Church and a member of the Perry Township Volunteer Fire Department as a Volunteer Firefighter/EMT. Joe had been diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) which is a nervous system disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord and in July of 2025, after a long fight with ALS, Joe went home to be with his Lord and Savior. The Fire Department wants to bring awareness to ALS and support the Buedel family, specifically his wife who survives him. The Fire Department also wants to honor the life and legacy of Joe and the time and sacrifice he dedicated to the Fire Department as a Firefighter/EMT.

  All race proceeds and donations will benefit the Perry Township Volunteer Fire Department and the Buedel Family. Our course is mostly flat and includes a portion of the Big 4 Trail. Runners can register race day morning at the Perry Twp Vol Fire Dept located at 103 W. Main St in Colfax. The starting line is at Fire Station. The finish line is down the street at Colfax Christian Church, 314 S. Clark St.

  Following the race hang around and race participants can enjoy a free breakfast at Colfax Christian Church. Breakfast donations are welcome and go to Dorcas Ladies.

  A Kennekuk Members Only Event - MEET THE BACKPACK TRAIL

  TRAIL:

  One of the most difficult in this part of the Midwest. Plenty of sheer beauty, and you could very easily get wet & muddy. Everything a trail runner could want. There is even a long stair climb. You will see things on this trail you won't see on other trails in the area. You CAN NOT run this trail alone if it is your first time. We would have to send out the bloodhounds!

  DIRECTIONS: Going South on Route 1 to Westville, turn left on East Main Street at the stoplight. You will see Julee's Shooting Star Tavern on the right (northwest comer). Follow the road for 7 .2 miles to the Forest Glen entrance. Tum left into the park and follow the road to the Maple Grove Lodge.

  PARTY: NEW LOCATION !! The party is at the Maple Grove Lodge. This will be a potluck style meal with beverages. Further details will be posted on the KRR Facebook page.

  WHAT IF THE WEATHER IS BAD? DUMB, DUMB QUESTION. WE'RE KRR! WE DON'T CARE! WE'RE TRAIL RUNNERS!

  WE MUST KNOW IF YOU ARE COMING SO WE HAVE ENOUGH -- SO SIGN UP TODAY
