Booking hotels used to be an entirely different experience. My first criteria always used to be nightlife and strip clubs. Now, I just want a quiet room that’s close to the race. Well, sorta. I mean, if you’re going to Muncie, you might as well “go to Muncie.”
I checked the recommended hotels on Muncie’s site, but they’re booked. They also seem to be a long ways from the swim start, and I’d prefer to sleep as long as possible and be within walking distance of karaoke after the run.
The race is Saturday, so I’m guessing we’ll live it up a little bit on the Ball State campus. Anyone have suggestions for where to stay?
This is where I booked a room. I saw on a forum where someone said they stayed at a Hampton Inn last year and liked it. It’s in Anderson, same place as the Fairfield Inn (which I couldn’t find a room in).
Hampton Inn Anderson

Looks pretty damn sweet! 🙂 Have any idea how far it is to the race from there?
Looks like about 30min based on google maps, so really not that far. I think that’s the case with just about any hotels around there. From what I understand the race site isn’t actually in Muncie so there isn’t anything really close to the park anyway.
