Great Ape Escape 5k-ish

Our 4th Annual Great Ape Escape 5K-ish is your opportunity to do something you've probably never done: Do a 5K around a chimpanzee sanctuary!

Invite your friends, family and co-workers -- and dogs! -- to walk, run, hike, or woof this fun off-road event! Whatever your speed, YOU CAN DO IT!

The course is just short of a true 5K. But, what we lack in distance, we make up for in grit! Our trails feature inclines and declines through nature with frequent uneven surfaces including, but not limited to, sticks, rocks and wooden structures. We promise this isn't your typical 5K event... it's so much better!

NOTE: This is a rain or shine event. Because this is a fundraiser for the 90+ former research lab chimpanzees that live here at the sanctuary, registrations are non-refundable.
