This run/walk event is in Bay City - we also have plogging events going on at the same time in Saginaw, Midland, and Mount Pleasant.   Join Runners Athletic Company and New Balance on Earth Day, April 22nd, for a fun and impactful plogging event! New Balance will be on-site with shoes to run or walk in during the event.   Plogging, a Swedish term combining "jogging" and "plocka upp" (to pick up), is a fantastic way to exercise while cleaning up our community. This eco-friendly activity started as a grassroots movement in Sweden and has since spread worldwide, becoming a popular way to promote environmental awareness and fitness.   Why Plog? Help the Environment: Reduce litter and make our neighborhoods cleaner and more beautiful. Get Active: Enjoy a run or walk while doing something good for the planet. Community Spirit: Connect with fellow community members who care about sustainability. It's for Everyone! All ages and fitness levels are welcome. Whether you're a seasoned runner or prefer a leisurely walk, you can participate.   Event Timeline: 5:30 PM: Check-in (get points with our RAC Rewards app), supply distribution (garbage bags, gloves), and brief safety/FAQ session. 5:45 PM: Plogging run/walk begins!
