From the Totally Unexpected News desk: I’ve won an award!
The Ann Arbor Area Board of Realtors (AAABoR) has selected HPR to receive its Eunice L. Burns Environmental Awareness Award for 2018.
The award recognizes HPR for developing Zero Waste programs for local running events such as the Ann Arbor Marathon and the Dexter and Ann Arbor Turkey Trots. In 2017 HPR helped 30 events recycle and compost over 15,000 pounds (nearly eight tons) of event waste that would otherwise have gone to a landfill.
The award will be presented at the AAABoR General Membership Meeting in January. I’ll provide details after the date is confirmed, and again after the ceremony.
More information about the award, and its past recipients, can be found on the award’s web page here.
Many thanks to Mary at Epic Races for nominating HPR and to AAABoR for selecting me!
Happy Planet Running
