The Event
Imagine the sound of thousands of bells jingling as people from all over Indiana run, walk and cheer in the 23rd annual Indianapolis Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis®. Bells will be ringing as 3,500 people like you tie jingle bells to their shoelaces, don festive holiday costumes and join friends and neighbors in support of the Arthritis Foundation’s mission to prevent, control and cure arthritis and related diseases. The Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis® raises awareness of the nation's leading cause of disability, while raising desperately needed funds to find a cure for arthritis.
