CHANGE STARTS WITH US AND YOU!
Sustainability is a popular phrase coined at the moment. In the endurance racing space, companies are trying to understand and implement methods of being green. And participants are beginning to question and insist that steps are being taken to eliminate unnecessary waste. But is it really happening? And what does it really take to deliver a green event?
We believe sustainability should be in the DNA of the event. Re-thinking every aspect to see how it can be done better, whilst keeping the integrity of the event’s competitiveness, safety and atmosphere. At Run As One Singapore we took a blank canvas and rewrote the playbook around event organisation.
