While jogging is usually a solo sport, it can also turn into a social activity that can help you give back to your community. Here are some ideas to shake up your routine, while making your jogging session benefit everyone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Take part in a \u201cpick-up jogs\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some say this activity, also known as \u201cplogging\u201d, is THE fitness trend of the year, while others simply see it as a fun way to do their part for the environment. A portmanteau combining \u201cplocka upp\u201d (\u201cto pick up\u201d in Swedish) and \u201cjogging\u201d, this activity consists in clearing parks and jogging paths of trash while on a run. Whether you\u2019re with friends or family, load up on trash bags, go for a jog through your neighbourhood and make it a more pleasant place. It\u2019s great for interval training, and you can even throw in a few lunges now and then.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5531\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jecoursqc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/ftq_dec-700x467.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Start a jogging club in your neighbourhood<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Running as a group can really help keep your motivation up!
