The Big Heart 5k takes place in Center Moriches, New York. This event serves as a fundraiser for Empower Wellness, a charity focused on supporting youth and adolescents across New York.

The event recognizes top performers with specific awards. The first male and female finishers receive gift cards to a local running store.
