• About the 2012 Austin Gorilla Run

  When you run in the Austin Gorilla Run you:
  1) Run a fun 5K with your friends
  2) Benefit mountain gorillas
  3) Keep your gorilla suit
  4) Enjoy lunch and an after party provided by Fado
  5) Get to hear live music by Achachay!

• RunTex and Thirsty Planet have been instrumental in supporting the Austin Gorilla Run and raising funds for the Mountain Gorilla Conservation Fund (MGCF).

  Proceeds from the race directly benefit Ugandans, Rwandans, and citizens of the Democratic Republic of Congo in veterinary educational training, with the end goal of protecting the highly endangered Mountain Gorillas in Africa. In 1987 there were only 248 mountain gorillas alive in the world, but through the veterinary and conservation efforts of the MGCF, the population has nearly tripled to 720.
