    DESCRIPTION

    Global Running Day is our holiday; a celebration of the activity we love and the sport that brings our community together. We’re inviting all runners and walkers to join us to mark the occasion, set a goal and cross the finish line.

    Introducing My Big Run

    My Big Run is personal. We understand each of you have unique goals, and we want to celebrate with you when you achieve them.

    My Big Run is an inclusive celebration of getting out there and crossing your own finish line, despite the challenges we are all currently facing. We’ll provide the support, encouragement, and know-how to keep you motivated along the way. You’re about to gain a ton of new running buddies.

    Help Us Give Back: Through our charitable arm, Do the Run Thing™, Fleet Feet has partnered with Girls on the Run and its SoleMates program so we can help more girls cross more finish lines. Why? Because everyone benefits when we support our kids.

    Here are two ways you can help:

    Become a SoleMate! SoleMates raise critical funds for Girls on the Run while completing a physical challenge. You don't need to be a star athlete to join—you only need to be a champion for the girls in their communities. Click here to learn more!

    Donate to your local Girls on the Run council. Your donation will benefit Girls on the Run programs and participants in the Triangle community.

    If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out [email protected].
