Footprints Trail Run

September 30th we’ll be offering our first ever fundraising trail runs for Footprints. We need collective action and momentum to implement community climate solutions, so we invite all trail runners to join us for the Footprints Trail Run.

We’ll start the day off with a trail race, winding through singletrack, ski trails and dirt roads on either a 5- or 10-mile course. But the race is just the starting point for a broader conversation. 

In addition to great food, music and tasty beverages, our post-race celebrations will culminate in a send-off for Footprints’ newest climate leaders. Each Footprints camper will give a brief presentation on the climate action project that they developed over the prior week at Footprints Running Camp. Proceeds from the race will go into a fund to help campers implement those projects in their home communities. 

We hope you’ll be part of the action both on the course and in the post-race conversations. We’ll share the topics of the Footprints camper projects prior to the event and we challenge you to find ways that you can plug in your knowledge, your networks, and your ideas to these projects at the post-race celebration. Together we’ll send the Footprints community home equipped to take meaningful climate action!
