2023 Footprints Trail Race

More than a trail race, the Footprints Trail Running Festival gathers runners together who are committed to climate action and connects them for more effective change. We’ll start the day off with a trail race, winding through singletrack, double track and dirt road on either a 5 or 10-mile course. Our post-race celebrations will center around a send-off for Footprint’s newest climate leaders. Each Footprints camper will give a brief presentation on the climate action project that they developed over the past week at Footprints Running Camp . Proceeds from the race will go into a fund to help them implement those projects in their home communities.

Heather Short holds a PhD in Earth Sciences, and has been teaching college and university students geology and Earth systems science for 25 years, focusing on the present climate crisis for the last 15. Now teaching at Sterling College, she will be speaking on the current and projected state of our climate, covering some of the action steps that Vermonters can take to better prepare ourselves and our communities for the changing world we face. She will touch on the importance of our daily actions along with the opportunities for collective action to create and maintain lasting change.

All our 2023 talks are free and meet in the Outdoor Center’s Activity Center. Read more about the rest of the 2023 series.
