The Wild Run, formerly the 'Gorilla Run', now in its 15th year, was established in 2004 to raise funds for Mountain Gorillas and other endangered species.
Over the last 13 years the race/relay has donated close to $100,000 dollars to wild animals threatened with extinction and Run Calgary is pledging to continue our fundraising efforts for conservation.
Please join us again as we run in and around the zoo on Sunday Sept 29th – 8am, for the annual ‘Race For Conservation’!
