Route information
This event provides a wonderful and unique opportunity to run in Chester Zoo! And 25% of each entry fee will go to the Zoo to help continue their fantastic conservation work across the globe. Chester Zoo is the most visited wildlife attraction in the UK and proudly named as the best zoo in the UK.
So don't miss out on this special chance to run alongside some rare and beautiful animals. And not only can you spot elephants, zebras, rhinos and giraffes during the race, your entry fee includes entry to the Zoo so you can explore everything it has to offer after the race.
The run itself begins within the Zoo for approximately 1k, before runners will head out onto beautiful closed country roads.
