What is plogging you ask? Plogging' is the Swedish fitness craze for people who want to save the planet. ... The term is a mash-up of jogging and the Swedish “plocka upp,” meaning pick up. In this case, litter.
So for the Tuesday Task - we did a hill sprint plogging session around the wonderful Alexandra Park in Edgeley.
We cleared the park area, with loop after loop. picking up our pace as we went!
Thankfully the return journey was a leisurely downhill stroll in the 'park' after an uphill session.
