PSA: for the 🏃🏃‍♀️ out there... This is a great idea 👇

Running is great for our physical and mental health, but when you live in a big city likeRunners breathe much more heavily than pedestrians – so running through the streets of a busy city can really flood your lungs with pollutants, and the impact can be incredibly damaging.

Natural energy drink brand TENZING is launching an anti-pollution ‘clean-air tracker’ with the help of King’s College London, which will enable runners to identify routes in the city with the cleanest possible air.The aim is to help active Londoners locate cleaner air in the big smoke, and help limit the damage to the lungs and internal organs.

Once synced with STRAVA, the Air Quality Score will automatically appear after every run, allowing people to tweak their routes; potentially cutting exposure by around 50%.Users can also search for ‘clean’ runs in each London borough, plot and share their own running routes with the community and take on challenges to find the cleanest routes in London.

‘Running is great for health, but It’s even better on low pollution routes. By partnering with TENZING I hope that we can help the London running community dodge air pollution and find that clean air run.’
