All participants in the 1 Mile, 5K, and 10K events receive a finisher medal and a race t-shirt. Kids Dash participants receive a special medal. Leis are handed out to participants, and there is music at the start and finish line. A post-race tropical treat is provided for every runner, and there are tropical-themed photo backdrops.
Awards are given for the 5K and 10K events. The overall male and female winners receive a Bigfoot Trophy, with additional awards for Masters (40+) and standard age group categories. The course terrain is described as a mix of pavement, crushed granite, and some dirt paths.
There are several volunteer opportunities available, with roles including water station attendant, course monitor, finish line helper, and the Bigfoot mascot.
