Run With The Burros

Run With The Burros is a unique pack burro race and trail run held annually on the second Saturday of April in Inyokern, California, near Highway 14 and Indian Wells Canyon Road. The event offers four distances: 5, 10, 18, and 26.2 miles, with participants having the option to run with or without a donkey. The course emphasizes challenging terrain, and burro/runner teams start slightly ahead of solo runners. This fundraising event supports California Breakfast Burritos and the Forever Home Donkey Rescue & Sanctuary, with all proceeds benefiting these volunteer-run charitable organizations. The race fosters a friendly, community atmosphere celebrating trail running and burro companionship. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
