“…For instance, the carbon footprint of participatory sport events, especially large-scale ones, can be substantial due to factors such as participants' transportation, energy consumption, waste generation, and water usage (Ferriz-Valero et al, 2020). Moreover, the natural environment can also affect the organization and feasibility of participatory sport events, such as air pollution and extreme weather conditions (Hinch and Holt, 2017;Mcpherson and Misener, 2022). For example, air pollution can pose health risks to participants and extreme weather conditions can disrupt or cancel events (Hugaerts et al, 2021).…”

PurposeSustainability is a major global concern, and research has suggested a bidirectional relationship between participatory sport events and the natural environment. Against this background, we examined the influence of runners’ environmental consciousness on their perceptions of the quality of green initiatives and their supportive intention at a running event.Design/methodology/approachWe collected questionnaire responses from 496 runners at an event held in Taiwan, and we used partial least squares structural equation modeling for our measurement and structural models.FindingsOur findings revealed that environmental consciousness had a positive relationship with green perceived quality, and that green perceived quality, in turn, positively affected supportive intention. Green perceived quality also mediated the relationship between environmental consciousness and supportive intention, and running frequency moderated the relationship between environmental consciousness and supportive intention.Practical implicationsStakeholders should promote the environmental consciousness of event participants and implement sustainable initiatives to enhance participants’ supportive intention towards participatory sport events.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the literature by examining the role of environmental consciousness, green perceived quality and supportive intention in the context of a running event. The findings highlight the importance of environmental sustainability in participatory sport events and provide valuable insights for event organizers and stakeholders in designing and implementing sustainable initiatives.
