About the Fleet Feet The Big Run
The course starts and finishes at a shopping center, so the surroundings are more parking lot than park, but the route is flat and the morning is timed around Global Running Day. There is also a post-race event for adults that involves cocktails and looped laps, which draws a costume crowd and tends to be louder and sillier than the main race.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at the Fleet Feet store inside the same shopping center, with a shorter race-morning window as a backup. After the race, the gathering moves to the center court area for music, post-race refreshments, and prize drawings. You need to be present for the drawings to win.

The Fleet Feet The Big Run has been held every year since at least 2023. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
