Did the 5km in 2018
I absolutely love this event. I have done all 3 of them and will continue to do them in the future. The event is well organised, chip timed, well supported, you get the rest of the day in the park, and you get to run amongst the animal enclosures. Where else do you get to run past Lions, Polar Bears, Giraffes, and Rhino's? Amazing event, especially for anyone with an interest in wild animals.
