The ZOC (Zionsville Optimist Club) will hold our 42nd annual 2024 “HIT-THE-BRICKS” 5K Race +3K Fun Run & Walk on Saturday, September 28. The 5K start is 8:05 AM and 3K at 8:10 AM. Our Start/Finish is at Zionsville’s Town Hall, 1100 W Oak Street.

HTB (HIT-THE-BRICKS) is truly a tradition in Zionsville and the Optimist Club’s biggest fundraiser of the year. We have given over $400,000 of support to our local youth since our club began in 1981

5K & 3K ROUTES

The 5K is a timed event. Both courses start at Town Hall and run the Rail Trail, downtown through the Village on Main Street and back to the Town Hall for the Finish. The section on Zionsville’s historic cobblestone Main Street derived our “Hit-the-Bricks” title of the first event in 1982. At HIT-THE- BRICKS, there are serious contenders as well as casual runners, walkers, strollers, dogs and families out on a beautiful autumn morning.

Prizes are given to the overall 1st-3rd place finishers in the 5K as well as first place in several age categories in that event. In addition, HIT-THE BRICKS is known for its popular raffle afterward with discount coupons from local merchants, prizes galore and a fun fun time.

Cost: $30
