When we think about endurance running events, our minds often jump to miles logged, elevation climbed, and personal bests smashed. But there's another powerful metric that’s starting to earn its place at the finish line: carbon savings.

Outdoor Retailer Ellis Brigham and Ourea Events will partner on 5 flagship events this year:  Northern Traverse®, SCARPA Great Lakeland 3Day®, Cape Wrath Ultra®, Dragon’s Back Race® and Salomon Skyline Scotland®.

This best practice blog outlines our approach to reducing risks to participants from sexual offences, stalking, assault, unwanted attention and inappropriate behaviour.

The Road to Reduction - Transport and Carbon. As we head into 2025, and plan for another year of racing, we're making efforts to think carefully about these take-home items: clothing, medals, and merchandise. The emissions associated with these items makes up over 3.5% of Ourea's total carbon footprint, so they are not to be taken lightly.
