Then on Sunday April 8th 2018 we will host 3,000 runners in our Half Marathon and Half Marathon Relay as participants run through African Adventure in Fresno Chaffee Zoo, with a grand finish along home-plate inside Chukchansi Stadium. Or choose our Rock and Run 5k, it doesn't go through the Zoo, but has all of the other benefits of the Half Marathon.

New Safari Pin Collection for runners!

Starting in 2018 we are adding a Safari Animal Pin for each year going forward. It’s a good start to a collection of amazing animals that are located at the Chaffee Zoo. This year we have featured the Malayan Tiger. All runners will receive their first pin, a Malayan Tiger to start their collection at the Health and Fitness Expo when they pick up their number, shirt, and other items.
