First Bull Run was the first pitched battle of the war, and simply demonstrated to everyone that neither side was ready for operaitons. It was seven months before any more major battles.
Second Bull Run made Lee so confident that he was ready to invade the North, in order to impress the British of Confederate viability, and gain official recognition and military aid. (Only the accidental Union win at Antietam prevented this.)
