2025 The Big Run 5K Training Program

As a special in 2025, our 8-week Fleet Feet Bloomington Big Run Training Program will have exclusive pricing at only $25!
Our Big Run Training Program is intended for beginner, intermediate or advanced runners and will be a little different than our traditional 5K program. We will all meet together for 8 weeks and offer a suggested workout that will help you build your mileage and endurance to complete The Big Run on Wednesday, June 4. This program will not have official mentors, but you will run alongside other participants. More advanced runners are welcome to complete the suggested workout or complete what's on their own plan for the day. You can also join this program to train for any race you choose or just to run with great people.
Program Details
When: Weekly group training runs will be at 5:30 pm on Tuesdays and 8:00 am on Saturdays. The first workout will be Tuesday, April 8 at 5:30 pm.
Where: The group will meet at Fleet Feet Bloomington, Tipton Park, Rosa Parks Commons, Rollingbrook Park and other locations in Bloomington-Normal. Participants will receive a program calendar that highlights where the group will meet each week as well as weekly email reminders.
