Big Foot Boogie ~ 5K

2024 BIGFOOT BOOGIE 5K

Join us for America’s ONLY 5K Road Series that crosses 2 states! The Riverwalk Run Series offers four opportunities, all in McCaysville, Georgia and crossing into Copperhill, Tennessee. Our next event is the Bigfoot Boogie 5K on Saturday, November 2, 2024, at 5:30 pm. RAIN or SHINE!

The course takes runners through the charming downtowns of McCaysville, Georgia, and its sister city, Copperhill, Tennessee. The community is united by a state line at the heart of the historic Copper Basin. Covering 3.1 miles, the course crosses from Georgia into Tennessee and back into Georgia. Participants will also run alongside the famous Toccoa River and across the city’s iconic steel bridge—one of only a few left in America.

The series was created by the McCaysville Business Association, a non-profit organization, to foster further economic, cultural, and social growth within the community. Drive up for the day or spend a weekend with family and friends in the area’s hundreds of scenic cabins. Located just a few miles north of Blue Ridge, Georgia, the region offers plenty of activities that include live music, rafting, craft beer breweries, hiking, fly fishing, and more!

Parking is free and plentiful, located right across the finish line at McCaysville’s City Park. For more information, visit the website at www.RiverwalkRunSeries.com.
