The 14th Annual Bolt for the Heart Thanksgiving Day Family 5K Run & Walk in Carmel Indiana.
Join us on Thanksgiving morning in Carmel, Indiana for a tradition that brings families, friends, and the community together in the spirit of giving back. The Bolt for the Heart 5K isn’t just a race—it’s a mission.
Every step taken helps place life-saving Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) into the hands of law enforcement and in public spaces throughout Indiana. To date, Bolt for the Heart has donated hundreds of AEDs, saving lives across our state—and with your support, we can do even more.
