SJC Racing is proud to continue the tradition of one of the oldest races in Indianapolis: the 43rd Annual Polar Bear Winter Classic. We listened to runner feedback from 2024 and are returning to our roots with a 5K, 5 Mile & The Bear!
This historic race is strategically placed on the calendar during the second half of February to be the first major road race of the year in Indy. The race offers a unique format including a 5K, 5 Mile or The Bear (5K + 5 Mile) The Bear is the challenge that allows you to run both distances, one after the other, for a total of 8.1 miles.
