About this race

The Big Run 5k and 1-mile, presented by Brooks and Michelob Ultra, is a community-focused running event taking place in Lincoln, NE (zip code 68506) on June 5, 2024. While specific historical details for this particular iteration are not provided, "The Big Run" is a nationwide initiative by Fleet Feet stores aiming to celebrate running and connect runners within their local communities. Participants can anticipate a friendly and inclusive atmosphere with both a 5k and a 1-mile option, catering to a range of running abilities from casual walkers to more competitive runners. The event typically includes post-race celebrations and opportunities to connect with fellow participants and brand representatives. Participants in the Lincoln Big Run should expect a race primarily held on paved city streets, often showcasing local parks and landmarks. The terrain is generally flat and fast, making it suitable for personal best attempts. Given the June date, participants should be prepared for potentially warm and humid conditions typical of early summer in Nebraska, so hydration and sun protection are advised. Notable features often include branded swag from Brooks and Michelob Ultra, and the overarching goal is to foster a shared passion for running and support the local running scene.
