We’re running GREEN on June 18 !
At the direction of La Foulée des parcs, we have made the decision to reduce our waste as much as possible, and to strive for ZERO WASTE! This is why we go GREEN. Time is running out TOWARDS June 18, but we’re also running ECOLOGICALLY (GREEN)! Some of we’re preparing for the race, others are training to run, but all participants will be running GREEN on June 18! In short, our participation to all in preparation for this event plays in favor of ecology.
There will be no single-use water bottles
The first decision was to eliminate single-use plastic water bottles. Indeed, as you can see in the image opposite, the water will come from these large bottles which are made available to us during the event and which, taken away, will be reusable afterwards. With your hands, you can form a cup to collect the water that spills or bring your water bottle if you prefer. Both solutions are eco-friendly and reduce our waste from hydration to zero!

Organic, local and fair trade products
We thank our sponsors who have helped us with organic, local and fair trade products.
We recycle and compost on site
We have reduced the number of packaging as much as possible, but for the little that remains, we will have enough to recycle on site. Ditto for the compost! Banana peels, apple cores or other organic residues will go into compost bins directly at the foot of the tables that we will transport through the usual city circuits.
Walking or cycling
We also try and encourage you to walk or cycle as much as possible! We have provided additional bicycle racks in the courtyard of the Paul Gérin Lajoie school to receive the surplus. Public transport is also a solution.
You encourage us!
By participating in La Foulée des Parcs, with your volunteer help, your bib, and your sharing on social networks, you encourage us to continue these responsible practices. Together, we will succeed in changing the world!
