In the sixth year of their partnership, Adidas and Parley for the Oceans are once again hosting the “Run for the Oceans” challenge. Registration is now open for the event that takes place from May 23 to June 8, 2022. For the first time, the Run for the Oceans includes a broader range of activities: not only running but also tennis, wheelchair movement, soccer and other sports are admitted. For every 10 minutes of activity recorded via the Adidas Runtastic app, JoyRun, Codoon, Yeudongquan or Strava, Parley will clean up the equivalent weight of one plastic bottle from beaches, remote islands and coastlines, up to a maximum of 250 tons. Since its premiere in 2017, 8.2 million runners worldwide contributed their activities to Run for the Oceans, running a combined total of more than 81.7 million km.
For 2022, Adidas and Parley have announced the launch of Adizero X Parley and Ultraboost 22 X Parley. With a carbon footprint of 3.5 kg per pair, the Adizero X Parley is the first product where the two brands have teamed up to bring a lower footprint concept to market.
