GOING GREEN!
Runners High is trying to GO GREEN.
Did you know Nike is sending all shipments with "Reuse, we do" on the large shipment boxes? Runners High then recycles these boxes for other shipments.
Sole Custom Foot beds is now using ecopac packaging. Their old package was mad of PET plastic. The new Ecopac packaging is made with PLA. This is a reduction of 25 MJ per kilogram.
Runners High also donates old running shoes to the re use a shoe program!
By using the Runners High web site, and using email blasts, Runners High is saving thousands and thousands of flyers! Please tell a friend to check our web site and get on our email list: Runnershighsale@aol.com

The course will run through the campus at CSULB where many of the CSULB staff and students will turn out to cheer on the runners.
