Join thousands of runners and walkers as they lace up their running shoes for the annual Run Wild for the Detroit Zoo, sponsored by Ford, on Sunday, September 13, 2015! The event includes 5K and 10K runs, the Too Wild! 5K+10K combo, plus a noncompetitive 1.5-mile Fun Walk. Runners in the 5K and 10K events start at the Zoo’s 10 Mile Road entrance and wind through the scenic streets of Huntington Woods surrounding the Zoo. Walkers follow a course past award-winning animal habitats as they stroll through Zoo grounds.

Run Wild for the Detroit Zoo raises critical funds for the Ruth Roby Glancy Animal Health Complex and the veterinary care for the animals at the Detroit Zoo.

  • 5K and 10K Run and Too Wild! Combo Run: Flat course (wheelchair accessible) runs around the outside of the Detroit Zoo.
