Run Kind: Run with Everyone—Share the Trails
Fast or slow, short loop or long haul—running kind means being aware of other trail users and running single file to prevent trail erosion.
Run Inclusive: Smile and say hello. Share the trails and encourage runners of all abilities.
Run Aware: Be mindful of wildlife and plant life. Know and abide the leash requirements and etiquette of your area parks and trails. Please pick up your dogs poop where required, or move it off the trail.
Run No Trace: Run on established trails. Avoid cutoffs, multiple tracks, and creating new paths.
Run Smart: Know trail conditions, let others know your running plan, and have a plan B in case trail conditions are adverse.
Run Safe: Be prepared and have appropriate gear for all weather and trail conditions. Bear spray is encouraged. Running with a partner is always best!
Run Prepared: Warmup, stretch, and cooldown appropriately to your level of experience and exertion—and don’t forget to hydrate.
Run Grateful: Our trails give us so much. Give back by volunteering for trail clean ups and other activities. Support local trail and recreation organizations.
