Kansas City Zoo Run 2026

"Run for the Hornbills" returns for its 23rd year at the Kansas City Zoo Run, a quirky event held entirely within the Kansas City Zoo grounds. This annual tradition supports the Zoo's conservation efforts, with each year spotlighting a new animal. This race goes through the Zoo, passing animals along the way. Imagine seeing a big cat or a primate as you complete your miles. It's a chance to support wildlife while enjoying a run.
