CONCLUSION

There are two positive aspects of plogging compared to normal running. First, due to bending down to reach trash, straightening when you start running again, and then stop and go, it is more of an interval training than just endurance sports. Picking up trash while running is therefore an activity that keeps your body fit and benefits your health. Second, you do something good for the environment as you free it from poisoning trash – which is not only good for the plants but also you delete a source of harmful “food” for animals who might confuse the waste with something they can eat. So, it is actually a typical win-win situation: your body wins, the environment wins. Grab some paper or reusable bags, motivate your friends, and do something good for yourself and the planet!
