Our Green Commitment

The International Trail Running Association (ITRA) Green Charter seeks to encourage the trail running community to join forces, working together to reduce the environmental impact of our sport. It lists practical steps event organisers can take to be more eco-responsible.

We are proud to support and align to the ITRA Green Charter. Steps we are taking to reduce our environmental footprint are found here: Coffs Trail Runners x ITRA Green Charter.

We ask that runners during the event or training:

  • Do not disturb wildlife
  • Stay on existing tracks to avoid soil erosion
  • Do not litter or an automatic disqualification will occur
  • Be eco-responsible where possible

1. Equal Podiums & Awards: We offer equal number of podium spots and awards amongst men & women participants in all our races. We will also use inclusive imagery and event descriptions when promoting our events.
2. Women’s Specific Apparel & Swag: We offer women’s fit and sizing option for all our race shirts.
3. Menstrual Products at Aid Stations: All our manned Checkpoints at every race will have menstrual products (tampons & pads) available. If there are other needs (e.g. breastfeeding), please get in touch.
4. Women on the Starting Line: Women are invited to be at the front of the starting line and through equal media coverage to create an equitable experience for both the participants and the audience.
5. Pregnancy & Postpartum Policy: We offer a deferral for all runners for all our races which covers this, regardless of their circumstances (pregnancy, injury etc).
