RUN THE 10K ACROSS THE BAY ON OUR TEAM!
 We salute the Across the Bay 10K (to be held Nov. 8) for its efforts to make the race as environmentally sound as possible. Last year Annapolis Green participated by providing composting and recycling services at the inaugural race. We also introduced and sold the HydraPouch to runners to make it easy to fulfill the race's goal of being "cup-free." Did you know that the Across the Bay 10K is one of the largest races to go cup-free?
 This year we are ramping up the awareness about cup-free racing and promoting the idea because cup-free racing IS the responsible way to operate foot races -- without the litter and waste of paper cups (or even worse, plastic cups) at hydration stations. Going cup-free is not only cleaner (look at this photo to see the type of mess created by a lot of races), it reduces the dangerous slipperiness at hydration stations. This year, we are participating by registering a charity fundraiser! The Run Responsibly with Annapolis Green "Team" will raise funds to help us keep the Run Responsibly momentum going, reaching out to the many foot races in our area. Click here to check our our team page. Won't you join us & run the bridge or donate to be part of our team?
Even if you already have signed up and purchased a bib, you can still donate to be part of our team. Just click on the link to our page, above. To help you go cup-free easily, try out an Annapolis Green Run Responsibly HydraPouch, pictured at right. They are almost weightless and they clip on your belt or pants until you're ready to fill up at the next hydration station. Interested? Just click to send us an email and we'll get one (or more!) to you right away. Just $10. Or click here to buy online.It takes both organizers and runners to make running a big race like this an environmentally responsible event. Learn more about how we can do our part by reduce the wasteful paper cups and re-thinking the water stations. Watch the video below.
