GENERAL INFORMATION:  
On June 8, let’s inspire the runner in EVERYONE!
2024 marks the eighth year of The Big Run®, our annual 5K event celebrating Global Running Day. In partnership with Virginia Amateur Sports and Brooks Running, we celebrate our local communities by bringing tens of thousands of runners together to cross a finish line and achieve a goal.

CHECK OUT SOME OF THE FUN: 
- Become a Fundraiser! The Top Fundraiser will win a head-to-toe outfit (shoes, top, bottom) from Brooks! Start your fundraiser for Smiles4Tab today!
- Middle of the Pack Award! 
- There is a VIRTUAL option and an UNTIMED option

Are you looking to elevate your 5k experience by competing NATIONWIDE? The Big Run is also timed nationally so you'll be competing with racers from all over the country. If this sounds like your idea of celebrating Global Running Day then the Big Run is for you! Limited to the first 300 racers so sign up early. There will be top finisher, masters, and age group awards!
