The New Jersey Trash Runners

Some people run for pride, glory, or accomplishment. We Run 4 Trash (and a cleaner environment)!

Ever notice how much trash there is when you're out on your morning walk, jog, run, or bike ride? Well, there is A LOT! That's where we come in. We come from all walks of life and all different backgrounds, but with a shared passion for being active and taking care of our environment.

Join us once a month as we grab our bags, tie on our shoes, move our feet, and pick up some trash. Each month we'll try to hit up a new trail or neighborhood and do our part to make New Jersey a little bit cleaner.

It's a trashy job, but somebody's gotta do it!

Special thanks to Atayne for starting and supporting the trash running initiative.

"Combining picking up trash with running through nature, and with like-minded people??? Yes please!!! So, I've already kind of described myself there. I live in Staten Island at the moment, but don't mind traveling to New Jersey once in awhile."
