About the race
On October 26, 2025, the 21st annual Robert I. Damie Race for Our Kids unfolds at The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore (1 Safari Place). Participants choose a 10K or 5K run or a 1-mile Brent A.
Rosenberg Family Walk. The atmosphere blends competition with family-friendly festivity at the zoo; a post-event festival follows. The course offers marshals, water and energy stops, and medical support.
Strollers allowed on the 1-Mile Walk; not on the 5K/10K; pets aren’t allowed on zoo grounds. Runners receive long-sleeve tech shirts with medals; walkers get short-sleeve shirts and medals. Proceeds benefit several children’s charities; discounted zoo tickets are available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
