The Run Big Decatur Presented by Brooks
About this race
Celebrate five decades of running with Fleet Feet at The Big Run, presented by Brooks.
Celebrate Global Running Day with us at Legacy Park for a one-of-a-kind, all-day movement experience. From sunrise to sunset, our goal is for the track to stay alive with a continuous flow of walkers, joggers, and runners—creating a welcoming, high-energy atmosphere built for everyone.
Sign up for a 30, 60, or 90 minute time slot and move at your own pace. Whether you’re walking your first lap or logging serious miles, this event is all about showing up, getting moving, and being part of something bigger. Prefer to keep it flexible? Walk-ups are always welcome—just come by and jump in. The first person will take off at 6:30am and we hope to have at least one person on the track until the sun goes down at 8:45pm, choose your timeslot here!
Throughout the day, enjoy music, community connection, and an uplifting environment that builds in energy as the hours go on. Then stick around for our evening finale beginning at 6:30 pm featuring a DJ RudeDawg, burgers, and drinks as we celebrate together.
This event is free to attend, with optional donation-based bibs. Every dollar goes directly to support nonprofit organizations within the Legacy Park community.
Come for a lap or stay all day—however you move, you’re part of The Big Run!
