Claiborne Farm will host a 5k to benefit the Thoroughbred aftercare organization Second Stride on the farm Sept. 21 and will offer new limited tours featuring Foal Patrol mare Sabbatical in October to raise money for the Man O'War Project, Visit Horse Country announced Monday.
The inaugural Claiborne Farm Runhappy 5K/2.5K course takes runners and walkers through the nursery division of the farm, rarely open to guests and visitors. Registration is limited and costs $25 per participant until Aug. 7, when it increases to $30.
Access to the broodmare division will be available in special tours Oct. 5, 12, and 19 at 9 a.m. The experiences are $40, including a keepsake souvenir and proceeds will benefit the Man O' War project, which studies the impact of equine therapy on veterans recovering from PTSD.
