Striders go plogging

The Stour Striders Running Club did their bit for the Chartham area with a Plogging session on Tuesday 10th September 2024.

What is plogging?

Plogging is an eco-friendly fitness activity that originated in Sweden around 2016. The term is a combination of the Swedish word “plocka upp,” meaning “to pick up,” and “jogging.” Essentially, plogging involves jogging or running while picking up litter along the way.

The session took place at the St. Augustine’s housing estate and as you can see we were busy! It’s not our first plogging session in the village and sadly won’t be our last, but we can all do our part in keeping our lovely village clean.
