The Feanrun is Heerenveen's largest running race, an annual four-English-mile run of about 6.4 kilometers that starts and finishes in the city center. Organized since 2015, it is designed as a short city race, not a long-distance challenge. Individual entry costs €20, and companies can enter teams for €300, reflecting the event's focus on workplaces and networking. The route goes through and around central Heerenveen, with a notable section passing through the Abe Lenstra Stadium, home to SC Heerenveen. Local and regional runners participate, including beginners, club runners, company teams, and individuals supporting local charities. Organizers view the Feanrun as both a sporting and a social-business occasion, concluding with a drink rather than just a medal and departure.

Camping is available nearby, and specific details regarding timing, parking, and routes will be communicated via newsletter a few weeks prior.

The schedule also features TT Circuit Laps, allowing individuals to traverse the circuit at their own speed, accommodating those using mobility aids. Additionally, there is a Business Run for teams and a College Run for local students. All finishers are awarded a TT City Run medal.
