PACE for the Donkeys is a 5K trail run (walkers welcome!) to be run on the trails and through the fields of the Donkey Sanctuary of Canada, in Guelph, Ontario. It’s fun for all ‘pacers’, and good for donkeys since all proceeds go to them. The race will be timed, but go at your own PACE (just as donkeys do!).

Course Description
The course is a true 5K which loops up, down and around a section of the Donkey Sanctuary of Canada’s beautiful 100 acre farm.
Terrain includes hay fields, dirt laneway, wetland trails, and is mostly flat but this is the country – rocks, roots, and uneven ground are part of the experience.
You will see mules and donkeys in paddocks who will be very curious about what you are doing. And, you will likely hear the beautiful braying sounds of the 70 resident animals!
