The running events that we organise are focussed on reducing the carbon footprint and to be eco friendly. In 2022 Runners World recommended us as a race to enter due to our greener credentials.

Hi, my name is Kirsty, I have been lead Marshall for Darren for a number of years. My dad co founded Seaford Striders, a local running club, and as a family we would spend weekends going to running events, myself as the cheerleader to my mum, dad and brother! I’m a HR Manager Monday to Friday and heavily involved with the sustainability group in my work life, but at the weekends I love to be outdoors! Darren’s passion for the environment is inspiring and the ethos behind 3wordruns struck a harmonious blend of family, the outdoors and helping the environment all with purpose and a dash of sentimentality!

Running has not been a big part of my life or my background but recently, it has played a part in my life in a very positive way, I too believe that we can live well and exercise without having such a detrimental impact on the environment, this is one of the reasons why I believe in 3WordRuns races so much, so to be part of the team feels like a real honour and I can’t wait to get stuck in to the exciting local upcoming events and be part of this special community.
