About the Mary's Miles
The course runs along the White River Greenway, a paved path that starts and finishes at Westside Park. It is self-timed, so there is no clock pressure, and the atmosphere reflects that. The race raises money for Recovery Café Muncie, a local organization offering free recovery programming, and that purpose gives the morning a quieter weight than most road races carry.
After the course, Westside Park fills out with food, artisan and nonprofit vendors, kids' games, and a silent auction. Costume and team awards are part of the mix alongside the overall prizes, which were designed by a local artist.
