Plogging: Sweden's Eco-Friendly Running Trend Taking the World by Storm

Scandinavian wellness trends continue to inspire us all. After hygge and lagom, enter plogging (or plogga): jogging while picking up litter to clean the environment.

Plogging merges the Swedish words 'plocka upp' (pick up) and 'jogga' (jog). It's a straightforward activity that boosts your fitness while protecting the planet.

Essentials: your standard running gear plus a trash bag. This workout shines with built-in intervals from stopping to collect waste, plus natural stretches for better flexibility.
