About this race

The 5th Annual Bigfoot 5K is back!

The sun goes down. The glow gear lights up. And somewhere along the course... Bigfoot has been spotted. 👣

Join Creative Compassion for the Bigfoot 5K & 1-Mile Glow Fun Run/Walk, an unforgettable evening of fitness, family fun, and a little Bigfoot adventure.

Whether you're chasing a personal best, enjoying a walk with friends, or pushing a stroller full of little explorers, everyone is welcome.

✨ Don't forget to GLOW!

We want to see your brightest glow sticks, necklaces, bracelets, LED lights, face paint, light-up shoes—even strollers and wagons decked out in glowing decorations. Have fun with it!

Choose your adventure:

  • 👣 Bigfoot 5K – Run or walk the full 5K course.
  • ✨ 1-Mile Glow Fun Run/Walk – Perfect for families, kids, and anyone wanting a shorter adventure.

🏃 Race Details

The Bigfoot 5K is a fun, community-focused, non-sanctioned race designed to welcome runners and walkers of all experience levels.

  • This is NOT a trail race. The course includes paved and gravel surfaces.
  • The 5K will be manually timed. Participants will receive a recorded finish time, but the race is not chip-timed.
  • Runners and walkers are welcome.
  • Strollers are welcome.
  • The event location provides an accessible setting for participants, families, and spectators.
  • This is a night race, so glow gear isn't just fun—it's highly encouraged!

Keep your eyes peeled... You never know when you might spot Bigfoot himself quietly tramping through the course. If you're lucky enough to catch a glimpse, be sure to wave—or snap a photo before he disappears back into the woods!

Every registration helps support Creative Compassion's mission of helping our neighbors throughout the Upper Cumberland live in safe, healthy, and accessible homes.

Come run.
Come glow.
And see if you can spot Bigfoot before he spots you.
