Lace up for a cause that truly matters at Kelli's Kegs 'N Eggs, a vibrant 5K run/walk taking place on August 8, 2026, in beautiful Carmel, Indiana. This annual event gathers the community to rally against Glioblastoma (GBM) brain cancer, raising crucial funds for research and providing financial assistance to those impacted by this aggressive disease. Held in loving memory of Kelli McLaughlin, who founded the race, every step you take helps fulfill her legacy of turning heartbreak into hope.
The Kelli's Kegs 'N Eggs 5K promises a scenic route through Carmel, starting and finishing at the welcoming Bier Brewery. This isn't just a race; it's a full community celebration featuring a Kids Run for the younger participants, live music, and a lively silent auction. Afterward, runners can enjoy breakfast, making for a memorable post-race experience. Typical race day conditions in early August bring highs around 84F and lows around 65F, with a 14% chance of precipitation, creating a warm but generally pleasant atmosphere for hitting the pavement.
What truly sets Kelli's Kegs 'N Eggs apart is its powerful mission and heartfelt community spirit. Participants are encouraged to "throw on some green" to show their support in the fight against GBM. This inspiring event offers a meaningful way to contribute to brain cancer research and support local Hoosiers, creating a lasting impact one stride at a time.
