Going out for a run is great exercise, and it also happens to be an eco-friendly activity. But what about when hundreds, or even thousands, run together? Competitive running draws big crowds, and big crowds create a lot of excess waste. That’s why Jeff Jackson created Happy Planet Running. His Ann Arbor-based company works with race organizers to try and create zero-waste events. Jackson talked about how it’s working with WEMU's David Fair.
