Organiser's description

Join us for our 7th annual Rhino Run in support of TCU's Rhino Initiative as we help save this majestic species from extinction. Rhinos continue to be brutally poached in South Africa at a rate of one every 10 hours. In the last five years, we have lost over 5,000 rhinos and the numbers keep climbing. All proceeds from this run go toward rhino protection, rescue, and rehabilitation in the Eastern Cape of South Africa.

Please note: The run is pet-friendly! And there are LOTS of great prize drawings!
