Repair Café & Barefoot Run – as part of the EWAV program
As part of the European Week for Waste Reduction (EWAV) – the largest awareness campaign focused on waste prevention – we are organizing the Repair Café & Barefoot Run.
The main theme of EWAV 2025 is:
“Repair instead of discard: preventing electronic waste.”
At the Repair Café at the Billabong Family Community Center in Riedberg, runners can drop off their sports watches or electronic devices for repair – and while repairs are underway, we’ll enjoy an easy barefoot run together around Riedberg.

📍Meeting point:
November 22, at 12:30 PM
Graf-von-Stauffenberg-Allee 46b, 60438 Frankfurt
at the Tarahumara Fans e.V. stand
The Repair Café & Barefoot Run takes place from 12:00 to 14:00.
Please drop off your devices for repair first– then we’ll head out for the run together.
🏃♀️ Route:
We’ll start at Graf-von-Stauffenberg-Allee 46b and run together to the Riedberg Regional Park, just across the street.
The route is mostly paved, but we can include some gravel sections if the group prefers.
The planned loop is approximately 5 km long.
👕 Changing clothes and personal items:
You can leave your belongings at the Repair Café location.
Participants are welcome to run barefoot or in minimalist shoes.
☕ After the run, we’ll have an informal get-together to discuss sports and sustainability, with a special focus on reducing electronic waste in sports.

How it works

- We have our own race, the “Running for the Planet” in the summer in Frankfurt – Probably the most sustainable race in the world. Here we will run specifically to support our goals.
- The Frankfurt Marathon is also specific to our projects, so the registration is through us
- We run most of times in races with social purpose. At distances between 5, 21 and 42 km (also in relay)
