San Antonio’s Mardi Gras Madness Races Offer immediate Awards & Volunteer opportunities
SAN ANTONIO, TX – Bigfoot Running Company’s Mardi Gras Madness races in San Antonio promise a unique race experience with immediate award announcements and a festive atmosphere, organizers announced today. The event, embracing the spirit of Mardi Gras, offers both running and volunteer options for participants.
Runners completing the 5K or 10K will have their names announced and receive their awards promptly following the race, allowing for instant celebration - whether cheering on fellow runners or enjoying a post-race brunch.
Bigfoot Running Company is also seeking volunteers to help with various roles, including water stations, course monitoring, finish line assistance, and more. Volunteers can choose between a “Volunteer then Run” option (limited to the frist 10 signups) for the 5K,or a “Full Race Volunteer” role,which does not include running.
Full Race Volunteers will receive a Bigfoot race shirt, VIP access, and a choice between free entry to a future race or a $20 prepaid digital gift card. Specific volunteer roles include: Water Station Krewe, Course Monitor Parade Captain, Finish line Helper, Turtle/Sweeper, Packet Pickup / results Tent, Floater, Lead bike, and Bigfoot Mascot. All volunteers are asked to arrive 1.5 hours before the start time and check in at the Registration Tent.
The event will proceed rain or shine, and packet pickup is always offered 1.5 hours before the race start. Additional packet pickup dates,if scheduled,will be communicated via email to registered participants at least one week prior.
Courses are typically held at parks and greenbelts, with runners anticipating a mix of paved trails, crushed granite, and potentially some dirt paths.
“Join us for Mardi Gras Madness – beads flying,music pumping,and memories made. Let the Good Times Run!” organizers stated.
