The Big Run

Last year, 12,000 runners across the country participated in the first-ever Fleet Feet nationwide 5K, The Big Run, on Global Running Day.

In 2018, The Big Run is back and bigger than ever.

On June 6, Fleet Feet locations nationwide, in partnership with Brooks and Nuun, will hold one of two 5K events: either a (super) fun run or a certified, timed 5K race. Ours will hold an amazing 5k fun run here in Columbia, Missouri.

On Wednesday, June 6, we are celebrating Global Running Day by inviting the entire city to join us for a run because we believe the best sport in the world is done best as a community!  And when better to celebrate our most favorite activity than on Global Running Day with one Big Run!  Check out the details below: 

• This is a FREE Community Run & Walk and all ability levels are welcome
• It's on a Wednesday - who couldn't use a mid-week pump-up?  
• Other Fleet Feet Sports stores nationwide will also host a fun run or 5K race in their communities in a coordinated effort to create the biggest run ever in different locations all across the country on the same day - how cool is that?!
• Every finisher gets a medal. Not just any medal. A very cool, make-your-friends-jealous medal.
• We know some people. And some pretty cool brands (cough, cough, Brooks). Let's just say, we're planning some fun raffle giveaways.
• Race t-shirts are available for purchase at the date of event. 

Curious to check out last year's event? Search #thebigrun on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter to see how our epic coast-to-coast running community celebrated at The Big Run.
