What is Plogging?Plogging is the action of jogging while picking up litter/trash. Plogging comes from the Swedish term "Plogga". Stockholm Sweden became the first city to host an organized “Plogga” in 2016. This event combined a jog (jogga in Swedish) with picking up litter (plocka up). Plogga is an association and popular movement where the activity itself is about picking up rubbish while out for a light jog (or walk).
What's IncludedThis event includes one (1) complimentary drink courtesy of Run Calgary (alcoholic or non-alcoholic) and plog (light jog or walk) led by Run Calgary that begins and ends at Two House Brewing.Please bring your own protective work gloves if you have them. Run Calgary will provide garbage bags and have extra gloves on hand for those that need to borrow a pair. We will also provide a briefing pre-event to ensure our plogging efforts are safe and sanitary!
