From the Swedish term \u201cplocka upp,\u201d meaning \u201cpick up,\u201d and jogging, the idea of plogging is taking ahold in America.

All that is needed is a bag, maybe a pair of gloves and the willingness to pick up litter.<\/p>\n<p>The Swedish-based&nbsp;fitness app <a href=\"https:\/\/lifesum.com\/\">Lifesum<\/a>, which considers plogging a legitimate exercise, says a 30-minute plog burns about 17-20 percent more calories than simply jogging. This is due to the action of squatting or lunging to pick up debris; adding variety to your workout. Even if jogging or running isn\u2019t for you, a walker can benefit in the extra motion.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you cannot join in the March 20 plogging session, take some time over the next few weeks to clean-up, beautify and promote positivity in our beautiful County.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Keep America Beautiful organization has an initiative every spring called the \u201cGreat American Cleanup.\u201d Marking its 22nd year in 2020, the initiative inspires people to take action every day to improve and beautify their communities in nearly every way possible.
