Event Overview

The Big Run Sarasota is a non-competitive running event held on Global Running Day. Organized by Fleet Feet, the gathering serves as a community celebration of movement rather than a formal race. Participation is free and open to runners and walkers of all ages.

Course Details

The event features a single distance on a route that follows the surrounding roads and passes by the water:

  • 5K (3.1 miles)

The course is designed for participants of various abilities. As this is a fun run, participants will not be chip-timed and there are no official results recorded.

Following the completion of the 5K distance, a gathering is held featuring food and beverages, including beer. The event takes place at a location on South Osprey Avenue in Sarasota, Florida.
