Our Environment

The Board and organizing Committee are committed to the environment. Surrounded by water on the shores of Lake Ontario, we are very aware of how fragile our environment is. To support this philosophy we have taken on a number of initiatives.

We are trying to work with as little paper as possible. Printing in 2011 has been and will be kept to a minimum. We have yet to print any brochures – we are counting on our web presence, advertising both on line and radio and word of mouth to stimulate interest in our event. It’s a bit scary for us - but we are going to try very hard to hold to this pledge. You will also find almost no paper in our race kits this year. We believe this is a first in the running community.

If you can manage to travel in a group we will give you 1 free entry (for either the Marathon or Half Marathon) per every 10 people you cram into one vehicle. Ask us about travel arrangements should you decide to bring a group – contact lisa@pecmarathon.ca.
