Bristol’s 'plogger' says picking up litter on his daily jogs keeps him fit physically, mentally and emotionally and he recommends it as perfect exercise to shed those unwanted pounds. Plogging is jogging while picking up litter along the way, and Vivek Gurav brought it to Bristol after moving here from India.
The 27-year-old has just completed 30 days of plogging in 30 UK cities, where he collected 360kg of litter with local volunteers. He said he still ‘plogs’ for 35 minutes a day without fail, whatever the weather.
Vivek added: “At least one piece of litter is my daily requirement and I never break that chain. It also makes you focus on something else other than your own personal struggles and issues.
