A 5K Run/Walk - competitive and non-competitive. The event is part of the FDIC national convention (Fire Department Instructor's Conference). The event is open to everyone.

All proceeds go to help sponsor the Ray Downey Courage and Valor Medal and Award which commemorates the life and career achievements of firefighters who risk their lives for the citizens whom they serve. This award is presented each year to one outstanding firefighter at the FDIC convention.

The 11th annual FDIC Courage and Valor Fun Run will take place Thursday April 26 at 6 PM at the White River State Park located just a short walk from the Indianapolis convention center.

The scenic flat fast course winds around the canal and provides runners with an absolutely safe (no traffic crossings) and scenic opportunity to enjoy a brisk fun run with their fellow firefighters.

Timing and management of the run is going to be handled by Tuxedo Brothers for the more serious runners among us. For the rest of us it's a chance to get out and show our commitment to good health and well-being. FDIC is where leaders go to train. If we say we are leading the fire service, then we need to lead by example.

The run will conclude with a short presentation where the awards will be given out near the finish line to the top finishers of the event.

Nicely designed shirts will be given to all pre-registered participants. It will be first-come first-served on event day for T-shirts (no guarantee on availability or size).
