Spectators

There are plenty of great places to cheer and watch the action along our 26.2-mile course — we call them Cheer Zones!

Feel free to play music, ring cowbells, beat drums and cheer out in front of your home, in your neighborhood or other place. If you live close to or on the course route, we encourage you to invite your friends and family over for an Indianapolis Monumental Marathon party. The athletes have trained hard and your support is needed and much appreciated. Many times cheers form the spectators make the difference and provide a boost needed for a tired runner to meet her goal.
