ZOO RUN

Check out all the details on my latest ZOO RUN right here!

To learn about the next ZOO RUN @ Bribie jump over to the ZOO RUN Web page.  We are putting on so many ZOO RUN’s we thought we had to make a ZOO RUN page

www.zoorun.com.au

See you there!

 

2014 is looking great for the ZOO RUN with Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary holding their first ZOO RUN to help raise money and awareness for their own Currumbin Wildlife Hospital.  This hospital is such a busy hospital run by wonderful staff that deserve our support

2015 is looking even better as we take on more great locations and raise money for more great wildlife charities! Stay Tuned!

      Hello Kees

      Wow how exciting! Thank you so much for asking about joining us for the ZOO RUN at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. This is located on the Gold Coast in Queensland Australia. A huge tourist area. I have sent you more information in an email to your Gmail account! I really hope that our ZOO RUN fits in with your travel plans. If you are coming please make sure you find me on the day so I can say “Goedemorgen”. You also wont be alone, my wonderful friend from Walt will be there on the day. He is also Dutch. Mum is excited as she always gets kissed 3 times on the cheeks by Walt – as he tells us this is a Dutch custom. LOL You will have to let me know if this is correct. 🙂

    Hi, I have never done a fun run before but I am thinking of entering in the 5k.
    Can you please send me more information about everything to do with it 🙂
    Thanks,
    Susannah

      Hello Susannah
      The ZOO RUN is a perfect run to start enjoying the great out doors, see amazing wildlife, met like minded people and by paying the entry fee helping out the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital!

      I hope you will join us. If you feel you cant do the 5km run you can always try the 2km run/walk. This will be at a slower pace and not as many hills etc

      The 5km run will be in waves…Waddle like a wombat is for runners that know they will not finish the 5km within 20 mins.

      Hope this helps and see you on the day

    Could you please send me more info on this run..thanks 🙂

      Hello Janelle

      Thanks for getting in touch with me.

      The ZOO RUN is a happening at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on Sunday the 23rd of November 2014

      We will be there from 6am and the first run (5km in waves from fastest to slowest) will start at 6.30 sharp. Then the 2km run/walk will commence about after all the 5km runners have left.

      The cost for the ZOO RUN is

      • $50 for the 5km
      • $40 for the 2km run/walk

      As the 5km run is in bushland and some minor obstacles (such as bridges etc) are involved sadly only runners can do this event. No wheel chair access or prams.

      The 2km run has wheelchair and pram access and is open to anyone.

      This event is put on by Tegan (Me!) Lather with the help of her parents and after we have paid all the bills for the event, t-shirts, insurance etc we will give the rest of the funds raised to Currumbin Wildlife Hospital.

      In my last ZOO RUN at Australia Zoo we had 500 runners, just like Currumbin ZOO RUN, and raised $20,000!!! for the wildlife hospital, so I am hoping to sell all the spots.

      For the cost of your entry you will receive

      • Free T-Shirt
      • Free Reusable Water bottle
      • Free Entry into Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on the day of the ZOO RUN
      • Any friends and family that wish to join you at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on the day of the ZOO RUN at Mates Rates – only $20 each! That is a huge saving
      • Other freebies on the day and in the running to win Awesome Prizes!

      To register for the event please go to http://www.zoorun.com.au/currumbin/register-now/

      I hope we will see you there on the day!

    Hi, my 8yr old son wants to run the 2km event.
    Is that allowed? And for me to run with him.
    Thanks
    Andrew

    • Tegan Lather says:

      Hello Andrew.

      Of course that is allowed. All we ask is that if a child is going to participate in the ZOO RUN that he is accompanied by an adult. The cost of the 2km run is just $40 per person.

      Included in the registration fee is
      FREE entry into Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary for the day of the ZOO RUN
      Mates Rates for all other family and friends that wish to join you at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on the day of the ZOO RUN at just $20 per person
      FREE T-shirt
      FREE reusable water bottle

      Fantastic prizes to be won for fastest, best dressed individual or team plus so much more
      Maybe your son would like to also become an Everyday Hero and ask friends and family to sponsor him in the run. If he is the highest fundraiser he can win a family mini break to Noosa!

    Hi,

    I have some friend running the ZOO run. Just checking if it’s $20 for friends/family doing it? We are thinking of running the 5km . Is there a finishing time that we have to achieve in order to race in the 5km?

    Cheers

      Hello Evelyn

      Thanks for writing to us, there seems to be a bit of confusion.

      The cost to be part of the ZOO RUN to help raise money for Currumbin Wildlife Hospital and have a great day is

      5km $50 and 2km run/walk is $40

      When you pay for your run/walk you will also receive

      FREE entry into Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary for the day of the ZOO RUN
      FREE Zoo Run shirt
      FREE Asics Water Bottle
      FREE Sunsense Sun cream
      FREE Running Magazine.

      Your friends and family can join you after the run for a day at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary at the discounted priced of just $20 each. That is the price they will pay to go into the Sanctuary. Not the Run.

      The only discount on the ZOO RUN prices are if you have a group of 10 or more. Then you receive $5 off the price, only once the 10th person has registered and paid.

      What you receive for your registration fee is well over $100 in value and all the profits from the day will go to the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital. I really hope you will join us.

      The 5km run is in 3 waves. Lorikeet (fastest runners in under 20 – 25 mins) Emus (2nd fastest time in under 30 – 35 mins) and Wombats ( should be completed the course between 35 and 45 mins) Hope this has helped.

      If you have any other questions please email us here info at wildlifeemergency.com.au

      Thank you
