The Big Run 5K, presented by Brooks & Fleet Feet Olympia, is a free community 5K fun run and walk in Olympia, Washington, held on Global Running Day. The event starts and finishes at Fleet Feet Olympia’s store on Capitol Boulevard SE, establishing a central location instead of a point-to-point course.
The race is designed for local runners, walkers, first-timers, and anyone seeking a relaxed way to observe Global Running Day. Brooks and Fleet Feet are the presenters, with Fleet Feet connecting this year’s run to its fifty years in the running community. Online registration concludes at noon on the Wednesday before the race, though late sign-ups will be accepted at the check-in tent.
