Where to run track laps in Indianapolis

Indianapolis is flat, walkable, and easy to run in — a genuinely track-friendly city with a strong running culture and plenty of high-school and college ovals. Cold winters push runners indoors from December through February, so a field-house track is worth knowing, but spring through fall the outdoor ovals are the everyday pick.
