At Fleet Feet....WE LOVE TO RUN!   The Big Run 5K is a race being celebrated in Fleet Feet communities all over our nation!  In honor of Global Running Day (the first Wednesday of June), the Fleet Feet brand comes together to celebrate our love for running.  

We first brought The Big Run to the Clemmons community in 2024.  It was AWESOME!  For 2025, we are moving the race to Ivey Redmon Park to continue to grow this event, and include our running friends from all over the Triad.  Huge thanks to Brooks Sports who is generously sponsoring The Big Run nationwide.

Because this is a cross country course, there are three different heats: 

Heat 1 = Under 30 minutes

Heat 2 = 25 minutes or over
If you run a 5K between 25 and 30 minutes, you can choose if you want a more competitive heat (heat 1) or a less competitive heat (heat 2). 

Heat 3 = Elite Wave.  Qualifying times: Men Sub 18:00, Women Sub 20:00.  Must submit a comparable race entry to qualify.
