Zoom Through the Zoo 5K
Zoom Through the Zoo is a fundraising running event presented by the Greenville Zoo Foundation. The main race is a 5K that runs through Cleveland Park and finishes with a loop inside the Greenville Zoo. A separate Kids Fun Run takes place on a short route through the zoo and ends before the 5K begins.
Race services include packet pickup on November 12 and 13 at Fleet Feet Sports in Greenville, and on race day at Cleveland Park. Registration details differ by event; the 5K has a registration window that closes in mid-September, while the Kids Fun Run accepts registrations through race day.
Event amenities and rules noted by the organizer: strollers and walkers are welcome, pets are not permitted, and parents may run with children in the Fun Run. The 5K uses chip timing. Participants receive event shirts for the 5K, and Fun Run shirts are available for purchase. All participants receive one free guest pass to the Greenville Zoo. Post-race activities in Cleveland Park include music, snacks, and an awards presentation; some awards include yearly Greenville Zoo memberships. Medals are offered to Kids Fun Run participants.
