Plogging Pontoise is a non-timed road run in Pontoise, Val-d'Oise, held in early April. The objective is straightforward: run through the city and collect litter encountered, combining a workout with community clean-up and a charitable endeavor. Participants can select from two short distances, 3 km and 6 km, with both routes commencing at 10:00 AM.
The course remains within the town, emphasizing participation over speed or competitive strategy. It is suitable for individuals seeking a relaxed-distance run, families or friends undertaking a beneficial activity together, and runners who appreciate leaving the route in better condition than they found it. The event has completed its first edition and provides live GPS tracking for friends to follow participants and receive notifications during the run.
