Drudge or trudge (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plod

This clue is a double definition.

'drudge' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'trudge' is the second definition.
(I know that trudge can be written as plod)

(Other definitions for plod that I've seen before include "Heavy walk; PC (slang)" , "Shamus, say" , "Work (or walk) laboriously" , "Walk with heavy steps" , "Stomp" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
