On 20 September 2026, our fifth Run for Nature is back - giving you the chance to run through Chester Zoo and its surrounding estate, all while raising vital funds to help protect one of the world’s most iconic big cats. 🐅Whether you’re chasing a PB or simply looking for a fun challenge with a difference, there’s a distance for everyone:
🏃 10K - for those looking for a bigger challenge.
🏃 5K - a flat, fast route through the zoo estate.
🐯 Kids’ one-mile ‘Zoom’ - perfect for younger runners.
And the best part? Your run will make a real difference. 💚
Every pound raised will support vital tiger conservation work. This inclues the care and conservation of critically endangered Sumatran tigers here at Chester Zoo, as well as our Living with Tigers project in Nepal, helping address habitat loss, illegal wildlife trade and human-wildlife conflict so people and tigers can live alongside each other.
It's not just a run, your registration comes with some brilliant perks:
🎟️ FREE zoo entry for every runner, so you can enjoy the zoo for the rest of your day
🙌 25% off zoo entry for friends and family coming along to support you
🥇 A finisher medal to wear with pride
🐯 A cuddly tiger plush when you raise over £65
🎪 Access to our biggest-ever events village
…and much more!
So, lace up and get ready to run for tigers and help us prevent extinction. 🐅🌎
