Plogging: Sports with care for nature

Today we kill two birds with one at once with one useful habit: we will get rid of extra pounds and help the environment. These two goals combine plogging, collection of garbage during running. This type of ecofitetes originated in Scandinavia recently, in 2016. The Swedish ecologist Eric Alstrom, who loved the light in the fresh air very much, once moved from a small city to Stockholm. Then he drew attention to how much the streets of the capital were clogged. He began to take bags for training and put in them all the trash that came across in the way.

The name of the new sport comes from two Swedish words: PloCka Upp – to collect and Joging – a coward run. By the way, a real Plogger, he will call himself Plogga, will surely weigh the collected garbage and post a photo in social networks with the corresponding hashtags. This is done so that more people learn about the movement and join it. On the tag #ploging only about 190 thousand posts are laid out on Instagram.

Compared to conventional runes, plogging is a more diverse training. To select garbage, you have to constantly squat and bend. The packages are gradually filled and become heavier. Therefore, the ploggers are advised to take two garbage bags for a run so that the load is distributed evenly. This type of training is called a run with a complex load: during the execution, all body muscles are involved.

After running, the garbage must be sent for processing. What cannot be processed can be thrown into a container. Ploggers often arrange competitions and challenges. For example, who will collect more garbage. But ploggin can be done alone. It is not necessary to challenge someone at all to make the city cleaner.
