Trail etiquette / Trail Safety / Eco-friendly vignette scripts

1.    Passing 

We don’t all run at the same pace.

When you’re on the trail, be aware of faster runners wanting to pass, and keep left where possible. PLEASE KEEP LEFT and PASS RIGHT side when approaching.

If you’re passing slower runners, give plenty of notice and slow down if you have to. Shout out ‘On your right’ or ‘Passing on the right’ to warn them of your approach. Exceptions are if on dangerous slope then runner should pass on outside or more dangerous side while slower runner hugs safer side of mountain slope.

The extra care taken is a small price to pay for keeping everyone safe and happy on the trails.

2.    Music

Music is a great motivator when running whether it’s in training or during a race.

There’s nothing like some great tunes to lift your spirits and keep the pace.

Keep you volume low enough to hear approaching runners, and be aware of changing terrain. When the trail narrows or get more crowded, you may need to turn down or turn off your music just so everyone can share the trail, and run or pass safely.

Plug in, but don’t tune out!

3.    Litter

Gels, bars, sweets, bananas … having a snack on the trails is great to keep your energy levels up, but don’t forget to take your trash with you!

We love the trails and we can all do our part to keeping them beautiful and litter-free. Pick up after yourself, or someone else!

Take nothing but pictures, and leave nothing behind but footprints.

4.    Recycling / No Cups racing

The average runner uses 3 paper cups over a 5km race. 

Over shorter distances and 23k, that’s a lot of cups. Let’s help save the environment racing with NO CUPS. Use a reusable bottle, hydration bag or a foldable cup during a race, and take only what you need. 

It just takes a small effort from everyone to make a big difference in the world we live in.

 

NOTE: Please read this page closer to race week as could be updated with further changes depending on country.

2. 播放音樂

無論練習或比賽，音樂都為跑步帶來無比動力。音樂帶來的強勁節奏對提神及保持步速是最好不過的。

保持適當音量，以保持對後方參賽者超前/ 周圍環境之警覺性。

3. 拋棄垃圾

能量啫喱、能量棒，糖果及香蕉等...可於比賽期間補充能量，但切記帶走自己造成的垃圾。

我們都愛護大自然，保持環境清潔，零污染。

4. 循環再用/ 放棄使用水杯

每位參賽者平均每5公里使用3隻紙杯。

可想像23公里賽事，將會使用多少紙杯。為環境保護，大會呼籲大家放棄使用水杯，改為自備水樽、盛載器具或水袋式盛水裝置。

每人多踏出一步為環保出力，成果更大。
