The Rescue Run is more than a marathon—it's a movement. A heart-driven community event created to champion animal welfare, transform lives, and bring hope to thousands of vulnerable animals across the region. This year, we run with purpose: to raise funds for the construction of a dedicated animal shelter and a fully equipped community animal clinic that will serve both rescued animals and families in low-income areas.

Our vision is bold yet deeply needed. Every step taken in this marathon supports Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs, emergency rescues, medical care, and community education. The Rescue Run aims to break cycles of neglect, reduce stray populations humanely, and create safe spaces where injured, abandoned, and mistreated animals can heal.

Participants will be running—not just for the finish line—but for second chances, for wagging tails, and for communities who need accessible veterinary support. The event will bring together animal lovers, fitness enthusiasts, families, schools, corporate teams, and local partners who believe in compassion, action, and real change.

By joining The Rescue Run, every runner becomes part of a story of hope. Together, we will build a shelter that stands as a refuge and a clinic that becomes a lifeline. Together, we can ensure that no animal suffers simply because care was out of reach.

Run for rescue. Run for healing. Run for the voiceless.
Because every step can save a life.

The Rescue Run will feature a variety of trails designed for all ages, abilities, and participants:

3 km Family Trail – A stroller-friendly route perfect for families with children under 10.

3 km Dog Trail – A separate, pet-friendly trail created specifically for dog owners and their furry companions.

5 km Trail – A lively, accessible run ideal for beginners and casual runners.

10 km Trail – A more challenging course for runners looking to push their pace and endurance.

21 km Half Marathon – A rewarding long-distance route for seasoned runners ready to go the extra mile for the cause.

Every participant will receive a finisher’s medal, and the ticket fee includes a custom event T-shirt, forest entry fee, medal, and a contribution toward building the animal shelter, clinic, and supporting TNR programs.

Run with us—and let every step support a life-changing mission.
