The Big Run 5K presented by Brooks

Race Overview

Celebrate what makes running unforgettable — the high-fives, the endorphins, the friendships, and the finish-line feels.

Join Fleet Feet for The Big Run, our high-energy 3.1-mile party in honor of Global Running Day!

On June 6th, runners and walkers of all levels are invited to set a goal, challenge themselves, and cross the finish line in celebration of the sport we love and the incredible community that makes it special. Whether you’re chasing a PR or soaking up the vibes, this breezy 5K is all about coming together and having fun.
