I will be running the virtual poppy run starting immediately after the 2 minutes silence on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Anyone else running this at that time put your name down below and we will all run together (wherever we are) as team cto5k

Look forward to your virtual company!

Hopefully, hip permitting, I’ll be doing a full race immediately after the two mins silence on the 11th. We do that and then we set off. I have a pin on poppy for my run top 🙂. Good luck with your run 🏃

This sounds like a lovely idea. I'm in. Do I need to sign up somewhere official or just write on here?

The royal British legion website has "my poppy run" which you can sign up for. If you buy a tee shirt and medal this will be sent to you and you can also get sponsorship to add to the fundraising 👍

I'm doing a virtual run as well but hadn't thought about when I was going to do it. What a good idea: I will join you at two minutes past 11am :)

I am doing the British Legion My Poppy Run but a but earlier in the morning due to prior commitments. I aren't getting sponsorship as focussing on the run in December for BHF. But Roly, I will be with you in spirit.

I am going to have to do the run earlier as a Parkrun but will be with you all in spirit (probably literally as I have a school reunion) at about 11 xx
