The Big Run Chapel Hill

Ready to run in the biggest Fleet Feet Sports event ever? Welcome to The Big Run! 

On June 7, Fleet Feet Sports locations nationwide will hold a local 5K race. All results will funnel up into a national leaderboard to determine: who is the fastest runner in the country?

But speed isn't the only thing that counts. We want to see the whole community participate because, seriously, running together rocks. Let us recap the ways: 

You get to join Fleet Feet Sports communities across the country in doing something we've never done before—a nationally-coordinated 5K race taking place in different locations all on the same day. It's on a Wednesday—who couldn't use a mid-week pump-up? 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 and category prizes.

 

The Big Run coincides with Global Running Day and is open to runners of all levels and abilities. This is a mixed course - expect some portion of the race to be run on the road and some on grass. Runners with jogging strollers are allowed, but asked to start at the back of the race and to proceed with caution.
