The Bigfoot Boogie 5K 2026

The Bigfoot Boogie 5K is a fall evening race held in McCaysville, Georgia, as part of the Riverwalk Run Series, which is described as America’s only two-state 5K series. The series also features the Trout Trot 5K in spring and the Walk the Line 5K in summer, offering a challenge medal for participants who finish all three events. The 3.1-mile course winds through the downtown areas of McCaysville, Georgia, and Copperhill, Tennessee, crossing a state line during the run. The Toccoa River runs alongside the route, and the autumn scenery includes fallen leaves and mountain-town streets. The event welcomes not only serious runners but also walkers, strollers, amblers, and pets.
