The Mighty Mountain 5k

This classic course will take you through well maintained trail of rolling hills, gravel, and asphalt through a beautiful hard wood forest near creeks and lakes of Camp Caraway. You will go over the top of Longarm Ridge where you will be rewarded with beautiful mountain views! For our returners, this year's route will be similar to the one from two races ago. This is the perfect race for both runners and walkers.

The Mighty Mountain 10k

You asked, and we listened! Introducing the Mighty Mountain 10k. In this race there will be 2 Mountains to tackle, the familiar Longarm Ridge and new-to-you Orchard Mountain which is the original site where Caraway was founded. In this new challenging course you will gain around 350ft of elevation in the first 1.5 miles. The trail will consist of gravel road, single track dirt/rocky trail, the edge of an 80ft rock face, some great foliage cover and more scenic views. If you love the classic experience, the 10K will not disappoint. Strict walking of the whole 10k course is strongly discouraged. Mixed running/walking is permitted.

    Welcome...

    SOLD OUT - to the shock of everyone, the 2026 event sold out within hours of opening on February 1. We are sorry if you were not able to get in and hope you'll be able to join us next year!

    Welcome to the 2026 Run Wild 5K at the North Carolina Zoo! The event will take place on Saturday, June 13, with a start time of 7:30 a.m.

    This event isn't just about running—it's about making a difference. All registration fees go directly toward protecting our native salamander populations, the small but vital species living right beneath our feet.

    Each registration comes with a Zoo ticket, an event tee, and a commemorative sticker.

    The race will take place on North Carolina Zoo property. The route is on paved visitor pathways and features rolling hills typical to the foothills of North Carolina. The course will begin at the North America Connector road, continue into the Zoo through the Africa and North America continents, and conclude at Solar Pointe picnic area. Don't be surprised if you hear the roar of lions or howling of red wolves along the way!

    There will be refreshments and festivities at Solar Pointe for participants to enjoy in celebration of completing the race.

    The start and finish lines are near Solar Pointe, just outside Zoo gates. This means spectators are able to watch and cheer for friends and family at both the start and finish. (However, they will not be allowed to access any parts of the course inside the Zoo during the race.) The Zoo will open to all guests at 9 a.m. after the race concludes.

    This event is open to all ages, walkers and runners alike. You need to be able to complete the event in 90 minutes because that's when the course closes.

    REGISTRATION LIMITED TO 650 PARTICIPANTS!
