Bre's Run

Lace up for Bre's Run, a heartfelt event taking place on Saturday, July 11, 2026, in the charming town of Bourbon, Indiana. This race offers a truly community-focused experience with distances for everyone: a challenging 13.1-mile half marathon, a spirited 3.1-mile 5K, and a fun 1-mile run. Each stride supports a meaningful cause, as all proceeds go directly to the Breanna Lemler Memorial Scholarship, honoring Breanna who passed away in 2016. This event is known for its intimate "hometown feel" and well-organized approach, creating a supportive atmosphere where every participant, even the last finisher, is cheered across the line.

The course itself features paved roads through a lovely country setting, culminating in an exciting lap around the track for all distances. Half marathoners will appreciate the six dedicated water stations along the route, while 5K runners will find one water station to keep them hydrated. Typical race day conditions in early July include highs around 85°F and lows around 62°F, with a 16% chance of precipitation, so runners should prepare for warm temperatures. After crossing the finish line, participants can refuel with a variety of snacks available. The race's positive reputation is built on its friendly volunteers and the dedication to waiting for all runners to complete their race before awards are presented, emphasizing camaraderie over competition. Join Bre's Run for a memorable day of fitness, fellowship, and making a difference.
