Race Information
Run or walk your way around one loop of beautiful Central Park, surrounded by fall colors to show your support for elephants. Up to 100 elephants are being slaughtered a day in Africa by poachers partaking in the illegal ivory trade. Register for this year's Saving the Elephants 10km Run/Walk to show your support for the protection of these majestic creatures.
Benefitting the Zambezi Elephant Fund, you can run, jog, or walk your way around beautiful Central Park as we unite together to help keep the hope for Zimbabwe's elephants alive. This promises to be a unique and enriching experience for the entire family!
