About Tumbleweed's Run for the Animals

Run, jog, or waddle this 5 km or 1.0 mi course in the beautiful Racho Reata Canyon trail system to support southeastern Washington’s only rescue and sanctuary for farm animals. This scenic route will take place on single-track trails with some paved neighborhood roads starting and finishing at the animal sanctuary.  Join us at the sanctuary after the run/waddle to meet the animals you are helping to support, including 5 new residents since last year.  We will have a sanctuary tour after the run starting at 10:15 am for all participants.  

The top 3 male finishers and the top 3 female finishers for the 5k as well as the first-place finisher for the 1.0 miles will receive a unique finisher gift.  All registered participants will receive a glass mason jar etched with one of the sanctuary residents.  The highlighted resident changes each year with Freddie featured in 2023 and Sally Sue in 2024.  

The address of the sanctuary will be emailed to registered participants on Oct 16th.  

Race participants and visitors are expected to follow the visitor guidelines for the safety of all animals, birds, and people at the sanctuary.  Please review the guidelines here:  https://tumbleweedanimalsanctuary.org/events/run-for-the-animals/
