Welcome to the 17th Annual Big Nut Strut! You can participate in-person or virtually for the 5K race or 1 mile walk. This race starts and finishes in front of Prairie Run Elementary (701 North Miller Dr, Sunbury, OH 43074). The Big Nut Strut brings our community together helping raise support for all Big Walnut Preschool, Elementary, Intermediate, Middle School and High School PTOs. These committees enrich our students educational experience through support of additional programs and materials to their curriculum. Come join us to show your EAGLE PRIDE!

We are going cashless!
Please note that all race day registration will be cashless and all registration will be done online (no cash transactions). Please bring your smartphone and credit card with you on race day if you or your friends are planning to register on the day of the race! Thank you so much.
