Description
Come and join Hope's Legacy Equine Rescue's 6th Annual 5k trail run/walk! Participants will experience the beautiful terrain of Castle Rock Farm, the home of Hope's Legacy Equine Rescue. This race welcomes participants of all fitness levels from walkers to the more experienced runners. All registration fees will directly benefit the horses and donkeys of Hope's Legacy, a 501(c)(3) charity that's been rescuing equines since 2008.
There are now two ways to Hoof It: Virtually - at your convenience and your location. Or join us at Castle Rock Farm on Race Day.
Hope’s Legacy will be holding a public Open House from 9 AM - 2PM following the Hoofin’ It For Horses run. Runners are welcome to stay on the property, meet and learn about our 4-legged friends, and take advantage of the food trucks, vendors, a tack sale and educational programs.
All participants are encouraged to wear costumes for the race!
Please leave your four legged companions at home; dogs can stress out and scare our horses. The course is hilly, making participation with a stroller difficult.
