Earth Day Plogging Run

Come one, come all to our Plogging Earth Day event at 10 am on Sunday 4/25! Plogging is a Swedish term "plocka upp" which means "to pick up," and jogging hence, Pick Up Litter While Jogging = plogging. Plogging is a great way to get involved in cleaning up and helping one of New York’s greatest beaches, Coney Island during our Sunday group run! Plogging is the new jogging and has been featured in the New Yorker!

Please join us, we will be meeting at the W 8th Street Subway stop at 10 am on Sunday 4/25- both the Q and F trains lead here and if you are feeling ambitious, please feel free to run here:)

Trash bags and gloves will be provided to pick up the trash on the beach- we will run along the boardwalk/beach which will be around 3-6 miles depending on how far on the boardwalk you choose to go and back to the W 8th Street subway. Please sign up on the PPTC Group Runs spreadsheet, we will be capping this at 20 people.
Looking forward to seeing you here and cleaning up Coney Island!

Please direct any questions to the Social Committee.
