1/2 What if your first 100 miler was about more than distance.

Meg chose to combine ultra running with caring for the planet.

She ran 100 miles solo around Anglesey to cut her footprint & avoid race impact 💚

Along the way she litter picked the whole route 🗑️

Damian won the 2025 Lakeland 100. 100 miles, 6,300m of climb, and probably several brews 🗻

That’s a one big bimble! 💪🏻

My name is Joseph, I live in France and I've been a member of the Green Runners for two years now! I mostly race on road, track and cross-country, plus the occasional short trail; I prefer training in nature though!

Last weekend I wasn't feeling well and I thought that proper training would be impossible, so I thought I should do something different for once. Plogging is one of my pledges, but every time I remember I want to do that, I'm already 20 minutes into my jog, a couple kilometers from home, looking at rubbish on the trail without any bin in sight or bag at hand. Not this time! I remembered to grab that brown paper bag and to pick what I spotted. Nothing special really–mostly paper towels and plastic bits and packages… and a pair of gardening gloves . Though it was a bit desperate at times (near the city) the forest trails were mostly very clean. I'll definitely do that again on easy runs and try to come up with a better system than carrying a fragile brown paper bag.

Not much of a story but that's about it really, to me it just felt quite nice, like finally doing something obvious.
