SPS Goes Plogging

This morning, SPS went plogging – the Swedish trend that’s “sweeping” the running world.  Plogging combines running with picking up litter. Our friends at West Philly Runners teamed up with the Clean Air Council and Not in Philly to organize Philly Plogging Week among the various running groups.

Armed with gloves and trash bags, SPS runners picked up a ton of debris along Columbus Boulevard in the course of the run.  While there is still plenty of litter around, we still made an impact.
