Wayeoflife Sure, I was happy, but I was in a slow decline. So I did a reset.. I asked myself what makes me really happy? I still bike and swim, but do it now for the fun.

Plog / Run Long / Vegan
Plog - Celebrating 10 yrs as a plogger with a 100km plog in Sept
Run Long - I run 4000km a year
Vegan - I came for the cool t-shirt - I stay for the ethics and environmental impact In 2017 I did a hard reset - I asked myself a simple question; "am I happier than I was last year?" - the answer was "No!"

If the question would have been "Are you happy?" I probably would have

answered "Yes". I ask myself what moments were there when I was really happy and proud of myself, and I tried to reconnect to those moments

So I stopped doing triathlons and focus on the run. For the love of it, and not just to get to the running part of the race. Running is where I focus my sporting prowess now (hahah)

I also realised I felt better internally as a vegetarian (I was a veggie in my early 20s for 3 years).. so I became a vegetarian again. And now I am a vegan and LOVE IT! I also am trying to become more idealistic like I was in my young adult life. I was really proud of who I was then.. so I am trying to rekindle that passion for the world. As for the plogging? Well that deserves its own story.. stick around to find out! :-)

I thought it would be fun to record my training run today and show how I combine it with plogging
The run was Z1 45min, Z2 30min and then Z3 15min
I plog during the Z1 (super easy) pace and then afterwards focus on the run.
Normally I get a bit more plogged but the recent rain obviously kept the litterbugs away
Ask any questions below

30km training run. First 12km was plogging where I plogged 12 (yes twelve!) bags of litter
I pick up at least one piece of litter on every run. It is surprisingly easy to do.. during your warm up or cool down.
Today was extreme even for me but I wanted to show that it is easy to do even when training for a marathon.
But give yourself limits. If you say "ok, done my bit, now run" then stick to it. Don't get upset if you ignore some litter later (maybe you will pick it up instead tomorrow). You have done your target, be pleased with that.
If everyone does the same then we can move mountains (of litter) together 💪
The rest of the run was great (around 5min/km).. on track for Eindhoven marathon!
I also put a story highlight together of today.. check it out!
And finally.. .. please get me on the show for the new season to talk about plogging. I really want to help make a positive impact on this wonderful country I am now officially a part of.

8. But there is always a red bull can somewhere on the ground🚮
9. Back at the DCRainmaker cave. Err, Ray.. that is a whole box of GoPros dude!

It is all too easy to think you are living in a picturesque and clean area.. but look around on the ground. Look hard.
On today's easy 1 hour plog, I picked up 6 bags of litter. .
Forget the issue of single use plastic or other packaging.. this is litter on the ground that we, as a society, have dropped. .
Putting things in a bin takes no funding or new laws, it is just a tiny bit of effort and a moral compass.
A photo that is going around at the moment highlights the issue. Google "mother bird feeding her chick a cigarette"
Let's help change society. Pick up a piece of rubbish on the ground today and share it on social media.
