The Belize Wildlife Referral Clinic is having their Race for Conservation on December 30th.  It'll go from Cayo to Bullet Tree for the 5K part, and all the way back for the 10K run.  It's a great way to get ready for the Chiquibul Challenge Marathon.  Contact the BWRC to enter.

The Belize Wildlife and Referral Clinic's Cayo Race for Conservation was this morning.  They had a 5k and a 10k route(from Hode's to Bullet Tree, and back), and the winners of the 10k got a free entry to the Chiquibul Challenge Marathon, which is in 3 weeks.  The results are now online.
