Wed 04/29 5:15PM – 7:30PM
Join RunVermont and host Switchback Brewing Co. on April 29, 2026, for a special group run or walk/plog* and sustainability panel. We'll be meeting at the Switchback Tap Room at 5:15 PM and heading out for a four-mile group run with optional plog* (two miles out and two miles back going north on the bike path). After the group run/walk/plog, and a chance to purchase a beverage and food (beer, wine, cider, N/A options, and hot dogs in the Tap Room; to-go food orders from the Beer Garden), we'll hear from our amazing panelists:
- Kristen Graff, Global Director Environmental and Social Responsibility, Cabot Hosiery Mills (Darn Tough Vermont);
- Rachel Binstock, Chief of Staff, Wasted*;
- Sarah Weihman, Founder/CEO, Paradis Sport; and
- Robby Ringer, Co-founder, Bivo.
RunVermont is so fortunate to get to partner with these companies, all of which have a nexus to Vermont and are making decisions with an eye towards environmental sustainability. Get in some miles, keep the bike path clean, and get some inspiration from the work these companies are doing.
* Plogging is jogging (or walking, skipping, scooting, etc.) while picking up litter. The derivation is from the Swedish words jogga (jog) and plocka (pick) and we'll provide the supplies that you'll need to plog. Not interested in plogging? No worries, you can just jogga (or walk, skip, run, or scoot).
