  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 suzanne@fleetfeethuntsville.com.

  Ready to run in the biggest Fleet Feet event ever? Welcome to The Big Run!

  Why The Big Run?

  Because we want to bring running to more communities; we want more people to set goals and meet them; we want more people to experience that feeling of accomplishment as they cross the finish line.

  Because running changes everything.

  Visit Fleet Feet Huntsville to see when the next local 5K training program begins! We're here to help.

  • You get to join Fleet Feet communities across the country in doing something we've never done before—a nationally-coordinated 5K race taking place in different locations all on the same day.

  • It's on a Wednesday—who couldn't use a mid-week pump-up?

  • Every finisher gets a medal. Not just any medal. A very cool, make-your-friends-jealous medal.

  • We know some people. And some pretty cool brands (cough, cough, Brooks). Let's just say, we're planning some fun raffle giveaways and category prizes.

  The Big Run coincides with Global Running Day and is open to runners of all levels and abilities.

Depending on how many bibs are not picked up will determine how many RunningLane bibs will receive finisher medals.

  Come Celebrate America's Independence with the all new Freedom 5K and back from its 9 year hiatus the Independence Mile!

  • Watch this full course video from 2023 to be fully prepared! Note that each year there may be slight changes to the course or setup to accommodate conditions.

  • Reminder that athletes will enter the pool by swim time (shortest to longest) to help manage congestion. Please be as accurate as possible with your swim time; you will have an opportunity to adjust your swim time closer to race day. It is acceptable to stop and hold the side or the rope, to stop and rest at each end, and to use a snorkel. If you feel you will stop during the swim, please factor that into your swim time. There will be lifeguards and volunteers around the pool. The practice swim will be a great opportunity to determine an appropriate time!

  Course Description

  5 Mile Swim: Around Hobbs Island

  • requires the participant to provide kayak and kayaker-

  This is a five mile circumnavigation of Hobbs Island that will start at the public boat ramp, 1000 Hobbs Island Rd SE, between Forrest Paddle Boarding (swimmer/spectator parking) and Pit Stop Boat Ramp Public Parking (volunteer parking). Swimmers will enter the water via a boat ramp on the shoreline and will swim clockwise around Hobbs Island and finish at the same location as the start. Because the first few miles and the last few hundred meters are against the river current, this swim may take longer than a typical 5 mile swim in the pool.

  2 Mile Swim Event

  This is a two mile out and back that will start at the same public boat ramp as the 5 mile swim start. Start will be just after the 5 mile swim start. Swimmers will enter the water via a boat ramp on the shoreline. Swimmers will swim upstream approximately 1 mile and then turn around. The finish location will be the same as the start. Because the first mile is against the river current, this swim will take longer than a typical two mile swim in the pool. Please be aware that this is NOT an event for beginner swimmers. You should be able to swim 2.5 miles continuously in a pool before tackling this 2 mile event.

  1 Mile Swim Event

  This is a one mile out and back that will start at the same public boat ramp as the 5 and 2 mile swim start. Start will be just after the 2 mile swim start. Swimmers will enter the water via ramps on the shoreline. Swimmers will proceed upstream 0.5 mile and then turn around at the turnaround buoy. The finish location will be the same as the start. Because the first half mile is against the river current, this swim will take longer than a typical one mile swim in the pool.

  Current and Time Cutoffs

  Current in the Tennessee River normally varies greatly because this stretch of the river is controlled by Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) via flow rates from the Guntersville Dam. However, every year we submit a flow reduction request to TVA for the race. NEVERTHELESS, they do not have to honor this, and they may not, and we have minimal input into this decision. We are grateful that they are often able to do this for our safety and comfort. For your information, typical TVA-adjusted flow rates for this race in the past have been ~19,000 cubic feet per second, which translates to a very reasonable current for most open water swimmers. That said, be prepared to swim longer than a typical 1, 2 or 5 mile swim in the pool. The 5 mile time cutoff is the tip of the island at 3.5 hrs or 12 noon and finish by 5 hours or 1:30 pm. No time cutoffs for 1 or 2 milers.

  Temperature

  Water temperatures are typically between 75 to 83 degrees. We encourage you to stay well hydrated before and after, select an appropriate pace for your temperature and comfort. If water temperature exceeds 87 degrees (extremely unlikely given historical conditions), we will cancel the swim due to safety.

  Spectators

  There is a small spot near the swim start/exit for spectator, however, it is very rocky and uneven terrain, so please use caution. There is also viewing at Old Madison County Marina, which is more stable, but not accessible from the swim start/exit by foot.

  RULES

  • Swimmers must be at least 13 years of age.

  • Swimmers may wear wetsuits if the water temperature is 78 degrees or lower.

  • If the water temperature is between 78.1 – 83.9 degrees, competitors may wear wetsuits but will not be eligible for awards.

  • If the water temperature is 84 degrees or above, participants may NOT wear wetsuits.

  • Swimmers must wear issued swim cap.

  • The following items are NOT allowed: fins, paddles, gloves, floatation devices, or audio devices.

  • Participants may use any stroke to propel themselves thru the water and may tread water or float, if needed.

  • You may touch or hang onto a kayak for safety with no penalty against awards, but making forward progress with a kayak will be grounds for disqualification from awards. No touching other people other than incidental contact unless for safety reasons. Have your kayaker carry hydration and nutrition, and also carry extra nutrition with your kayaker in case this swim takes longer than you planned.

  KAYAKERS

  • ALL FIVE MILE SWIMMERS ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE THEIR OWN KAYAKER TO ACCOMPANY THEM. If you do not have a kayaker, you will not be allowed to swim. This rule is for your safety as the river will be open to boat traffic. Boats will be unable to see you if you are swimming alone.

  • YOUR KAYAKER WILL NEED TO REGISTER ON THE SAME REGISTRATION SITE WHICH IS THE SAME ONE THE SWIMMERS REGISTER ON (It will show a $0 balance at the end of registration). and specify who they are kayaking for (it will show a $0 balance at the end of registration). Your kayaker will receive a race t-shirt as they are a vital part of this race. All of this is included in the race fee that the swimmer pays. We have a very limited number of kayaks donated by various members of the local endurance community that can be allotted on a first-come first-serve basis, so, swimmer or kayaker, indicate in your registration if you need one.

  • KAYAKERS MUST HAVE AND WEAR LIFEJACKETS AT ALL TIMES.

  • 5 MILE KAYAKERS ESPECIALLY: Here is a blog post by a friend of ours who is a very experienced open water marathon swimmer, sharing her tips and experiences on how to support your swimmer best. We recommend you review this! It’s simply fantastic! Thanks Sydne Didier!

  The Legacy Run is more than a race, it’s a movement. Proceeds from this event directly support the Foundation’s violence prevention initiatives, youth mentorship programs, and community outreach efforts focused on education, conflict resolution, and empowerment.

  Whether you’re running for a loved one, walking for peace, or showing up to support a powerful cause, your presence matters.

  Run for peace.

  Run for prevention.

  Run to leave a legacy.

  All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Together, we can turn purpose into action and create lasting change, one mile at a time.

  Awards will be presented to the following categories:

  Overall Finishers

  • Top 3 Overall Male Runners

  • Top 3 Overall Female Runners

  (Overall winners are not eligible for age-group awards.)

  Age Group Awards

  Awards will be given to the Top Male and Female finisher in each age group:

  • 12–19

  • 20–29

  • 30–39

  • 40–49

  • 50–59

  • 60 and over

  Masters Awards

  • Top Male Masters Runner (40+)

  • Top Female Masters Runner (40+)

  Honor a Loved One - During registration, participants will have the opportunity to honor a loved one lost to violent crime.

  Registrants will be invited to:

  • Submit the name of their loved one

  • Upload a photo (optional)

  These names and images will be memorialized and displayed at the start and finish line, creating a space of remembrance, reflection, and purpose as we run together for peace and prevention.

  This tribute is our way of ensuring that the lives we’ve lost are seen, remembered, and honored.

  Nature's Fountain will be on site to offer post-race cold pressed juice and smoothie options. Legacy Run participants will receive a medal and T-shirt

  ABOUT THE EVENT

  Pulse Walk: Penny Per Step Challenge is a community 5K you can complete in person in Huntsville, Alabama, or virtually from anywhere around the world. Presented by the Griffin Leukemia Foundation, Inc., this event raises awareness for leukemia and other cancers while supporting programs that help cancer survivors rebuild strength, confidence, and purpose after treatment.

  Pulse Walk is a different kind of competition. It includes a non-competitive, inclusive walk designed for all ages and abilities.

  This is not a timed race. Participants are encouraged to walk at their own pace and take part in whatever way is meaningful to them.

  IN-PERSON AND VIRTUAL PARTICIPATION

  IN-PERSON 5K

  Early Registration = $20

  Open through August 15, 2026

  HOW FUNDRAISING WORKS (PENNY PER STEP)

  AFTER registering here, every participant should create a personal fundraising page at our official fundraising platform:

  👉 Click the link on your confirmation screen or check your confirmation email to create your fundraising page.

  Once created:

  • Share your fundraising page with friends, family, and coworkers.

  • Sponsors pledge one penny per step or make a flat donation - all donations made from your page are tracked to you.

  • Walk your 5K and submit your final step count at the completion of your walk.

  • Pledges are then processed based on your step total.

  • Every step turns into real support for cancer survivors.

  • And don't forget to tell your story along the way! (Build your following)

  You will receive reminders after registration to help with each of these steps.

  WHERE THE FUNDS GO (2026 BENEFICIARY)

  All funds raised during the 2026 Pulse Walk will support the Cancer Climber Association (see video on SPONSORS tab). Their mission helps cancer survivors rediscover confidence and purpose through transformational challenges, including survivor-led climbs of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest mountain.

The "race" is across the 383 feet (0.12k) of the Butler Green at Campus 805 in downtown Huntsville. Put on your numbered bib (just like real racers) and race from Straight to Ale to Yellowhammer Brewery. Or vice versa, we're not all that organized.
