FEE x Running Out of Time (ROoT)

WE DID IT! AND YOU HELPED US GET THERE!

After 40 days across 18 countries and 7,767 kilometres, the Running Out of Time relay has made it to Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. An incredible feat that was made possible purely through the support of over ten thousand people running, cycling, hiking, sailing, and celebrating – everyone taking action – to make sure the relay baton made it from Glasgow to Sharm el-Sheikh.

The message - our call for universal, quality climate education - arrived at COP 27 with over 800,000 signatures from the FEE Network

What is Running out of Time? (ROoT)

In partnership with The World Relay, FEE was proud to support Running Out of Time; a 7,200 km, 38-day relay race, crossing 18 countries from Glasgow to Sharm el-Sheikh - host of the 2022 UN Climate Change Conference (COP27).

Running Out of Time is world’s longest ever non-stop relay to take place in the name of climate action!

At the heart of this action is the call for mandatory, quality climate change education to be incorporated in all national education curricula. This message was carried by runners in the relay baton from Glasgow (host of COP26) and presented to decision makers at COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh.

As part of the global FEE network invited you to take part in this initiative. It’s an the opportunity for your voices and those of young people globally to be heard at COP27, and chance to take part in a truly unique and unforgettable action for our planet. Please join us!
