Run for the Wild

By Posted on

Lace up your trainers and get ready to run or walk in the annual 5K event Run for the Wild at the Bronx Zoo on April 30.

Runners and walkers can participate on behalf of any species that inspires them.

Registrants can choose from two different events: the 5K run for individual runners will begin at 8 am and casual runners and walkers can take part in the Family Fun Run and Walk at 8:45 am.

The zoo’s exhibits will be open for everyone to enjoy for the day, including Tiger Mountain, Madagascar!, and JungleWorld, in addition to new features including a beer garden for the adults, rock-climbing wall, silent disco, and so much more. New fund-raising prizes include a chance to win a South Pacific cruise and Yankees tickets.

Run for the Wild on April 30 at 8 am. Registration fee for adults is $45, $35 for children 3 to 15 years old, and $35 for seniors 65 and older.

The price of registration includes parking and general admission to the zoo on the day of the event. Total Experience Ticket upgrade is available on site.
