  Discover what it's like to be a true Hoosier in Bloomington. You'll want to check out all of the Big 10 sports, including basketball, football, swimming, track and field, and soccer, at Indiana University, one of the nation's most storied athletic institutions. Additionally, you won't want to miss the pomp and tradition of the annual "Little 500" bicycle race, featured in the classic movie "Breaking Away."

For those who want to be a part of the action, there's swimming, boating, fishing, sailing and waterskiing on Lake Monroe, Indiana's largest lake, as well as golf at any one of Bloomington's four courses, including the Indiana University public course or the PGA-ranked Eagle Pointe Golf Course. You'll also find a wide variety of youth and adult programs and special events at the Monroe County YMCA.
