Trail Runner Foundation was born during a simple training session up in the mountains… Laurent and Nicolas found an empty gel tube, a piece of plastic wrapper and other rubbish scattered here and there…
Of course, their first impulse was to criticize these pseudo “wide open space lovers”, who no doubt were too hasty, too selfish, or just too distracted to pick them up.
But soon they decided to take action, and pick up the forgotten waste they found on their way. The following question soon crossed their mind: what if there were thousands of runners sharing this simple idea that we must not give up? That each one of us can have an impact on protecting our playground our environment?
The Non-Profit Organization was born, with the motto: “Run useful!”
Every member is an actor, every single day
Whether during practice or competing challenges, the members of the organization run and pick up the waste they find on their way. There is no better way to combine passion for trail running and respect of the environment, this nature that offers us such a magnificent playground!
When sharing their actions and testimonials on the blog wall and social networks, all these actors – who are useful each one of them at their own level – contribute to the collective efficiency of the Trail Runner Foundation community.
The Official Trail Runner Foundation Label
This notoriety naturally led the organization to award a label rewarding the commitment of organizers of eco-responsible races.
To obtain the Trail Runner Foundation label, the race must respect the 5 articles of the charter, which are uncompromising:
Awareness-raising action before and during the race, a collective run to clean the trail before the race, the use of reusable cups and environmentally-friendly marking, and a clean trail route after the race.
These are the pillars of the charter, available on the organization’s website.
