The 12th annual Hound Hustle 5K Run/Walk is an annual UIndy Homecoming tradition that attracts participants from all over the community. This year, in partnership with Perry Township Schools, the run is being combined with the former Coach Hathaway’s Running South race held in memory of Tom Hathaway. Tom graduated from UIndy in 1954 then taught and coached cross-country and track in Perry Township Schools for 46 years; and coached and taught at the University for more than 8 years.
This unique partnership will celebrate Coach Hathaway’s legacy at both the University of Indianapolis and Perry Township Schools while bringing both communities together to celebrate UIndy’s Homecoming and Family Weekend.
