Runs and Endurance Events
From your local 5K to the Comrades Marathon, we are always hugely grateful to anyone who decides to take up a challenge in order to raise funds and awareness. Whatever you're into, whether it's swimming, cycling, running, pogoing, space hoppering, anything really - we'd love to hear from you. Here are a few ideas:
Running
We've had people running all over the UK for Save the Rhino both with and without rhino costume, these include Bath half marathon, Stroud half marathon, British 10K London run, Edinburgh Marathon, Hastings half marathon and the list goes on. There's always a race going on somewhere near you.
If you're not quite ready for marathons yet then why not sign up to run your local Big Fun Run 5K and raise money for Save the Rhino
We can help you with training tips, fundraising ideas and we'll also send you a Save the Rhino dry fit t-shirt to train and run in ....and if you fancy the ultimate challenge of running it in rhino costume then just let us know.
Please e-mail laura@savetherhino.org if you would like to support Save the Rhino by running your local race.
