Come join us for the 9th Annual Moorpark Mammoth Run where runners can enjoy the beauty of Moorpark’s unique landscape and compete in a fast, mostly flat 5k/10k race. For families, looking for a relaxing morning, we're also offering a 1 mile fun run/walk. MISSION:

The "

Moorpark Mammoth Run/Walk" is:
1) commemorating the famed Moorpark Mammoth (see below for the history),
2) creating a challenging, healthy, and fun event for runners and families,
3) benefiting local charities and the Rotary Foundation,
4) extending the weekend activities of Moorpark Country Days! RUN/WALK DETAILS:

The course runs through the park, then crosses the Arroyo, continues east on the Arroyo, then turns back toward the park. There will be timing chips for each runner plus participant and top 2 placing awards in each age category. The event will also include music, dancing, warm up stretches, yoga, and giveaways. Each registrant will receive a goodie bag, free fitted athletic T-shirt, and one free raffle ticket. THE MOORPARK MAMMOTH STORY:

The Moorpark Mammoth, which is a Southern Mammoth (Mammuthus meridionalis), was the first species of mammoth to enter North America across the Bering land bridge from eastern Asia as early as 1.8 million years ago. When it was alive, this behemoth would have stood 12-feet tall with 8-foot long tusks. In April 2005, the Moorpark Southern Mammoth was discovered and excavated during the construction of the Meridian Hills housing development north of downtown Moorpark. Since the discovery of the Moorpark Southern Mammoth is an extraordinary find, the City of Moorpark wanted to find a place to keep the fossils safe, but also accessible to the community. In July 2007, the City of Moorpark entered into an agreement which transferred ownership of this fossil assemblage to the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.
