The Melt Down 5K

The Melt Down 5K is a unique running event held in Shelbyville, Indiana, featuring three consecutive 5K races in one day. Participants can choose to run one, two, or all three races, which take place on a scenic paved trail through two parks. The event, now in its 10th year, encourages runners to complete each race in order, with a one-hour time limit for each.

All finishers of the three races receive a custom medal, and awards are given for top finishers in various categories. The event also includes family-friendly amenities like a splash pad and playground. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
