Run for Wildlife Autumn 5k
The Run for Wildlife Autumn 5k is a charity 5 km event held at Yorkshire Wildlife Park in Doncaster. Entry for the in-person event includes park admission for the whole day. The event page lists a capacity of 1,350 participants and shows an in-person price range of £24 to £26 and a virtual entry price of £13.50; virtual entries receive the same medal and may add a t-shirt.
The route passes near park animals and the event description names species seen from the course, including lions, giraffes, rhinos and baboons. Each year the event has an animal theme that informs the medal and optional t-shirt design; the 2026 theme was the South African (African) penguin. The Wildlife Foundation, based at Yorkshire Wildlife Park, is the event charity partner and receives fundraising support.
The event offers a junior runners category, finishers receive a medal and cake, and participants who cannot attend in person may take part virtually by running 5 km at another time and submitting results. Athlete information packs, route details and number lists are published for participants in advance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
