To celebrate the International Mountain Day 2024, the Kilian Jornet Foundation, in collaboration with NNormal & Upclear, is organizing a series of global community runs. These events are part of the Running Minds initiative and will take place simultaneously at nine locations worldwide.
In each run we will partner with NNormal advocates, who not only are athletes but also scientists or experts in sustainability and other environmental experts. They will share their knowledge and insights about the natural or urban areas where the runs take place, creating an enriching experience for participants.
These global events will take place simultaneously across nine locations, spanning Europe and the U.S. Discussions will cover topics such as the natural values and geological risks of Parc Natural del Montseny, river conservation in Tagliamento, or the effects of permafrost degradation in Norway’s Rauma Valley.
Our global Running Minds initiative supports the goals of International Mountain Day by fostering awareness and dialogue on sustainability, innovation, and youth empowerment.
Through engaging runs and discussions, we encourage participants to explore mountain conservation solutions, share knowledge on climate adaptation strategies, and promote youth involvement. All while fostering a deeper connection to the mountain ecosystems that are vital for both local communities and global environmental health.
