Matt's Run to Fight Hunger/The Big Run
About the Event
On June 3rd, let’s inspire the runner in everyone.
The Big Run and Matt's Run to Fight Hunger have combined forces to make Global Running Day in the Triad the best ever! All proceeds from the race will go to Second Harvest Food Bank.
Come run with us on June 3, 2026! This is a free fun run. Yes, free. We do ask that each person make a donation to Second Harvest Food Bank in order to receive an event t-shirt.
