A great PB potential 10k course, a challenging 10k military challenge and an exceptional atmosphere!
For those of you who haven't ran this race before, it consists of two events and a virtual option:
- The 10k Poppy run; is an officially measured and UKA licensed event with a flat and fast run for runners of all abilities can walk, jog, run their way around closed country roads with a great start and finish in Brigg Market place.
- The Military Challenge; we have a strict 50 space limit. You complete the 10k run wearing your own weighted pack in line with guidelines (36lb for men / 24lb for women).
It would be great if you can support the Royal British Legion and set up a just giving fundraising page (click here) This is of course completely optional :) The event proudly supports the Royal British Legion through donating from ticket sales, kit sale profits, collecting donations and of course you amazing people who choose to fundraise :)
The event can also be completed ‘VIRTUALLY’

Welcome to the Singleton Birch team!
2024 saw us welcome on board the Singleton Birch team as our headline sponsor!
Headline Sponsor 2024 - Singleton Birch
Meet our Singleton Birch friends
We are incredibly excited to be supporting Curly’s Athletes for 2024 in North Lincolnshire.
This year we will proudly be the headline sponsor for our local Brigg Poppy 10k, alongside with supporting Curlys to continue their amazing free FUNETICS coaching programme for kids based at the fantastic Quibell Park Athletics track in Scunthorpe.
Singleton Birch are pleased to be supporting the North Lincolnshire community to get active, grow our local events, bring more visitors to the area and support great charities.
Curlys ethos and approach is a great reflection of our team's values, and we look forward to a lasting partnership supporting our community and having some fun.
Curlys are delighted to have the support of the Singleton Birch team for 2024. Their support further helps us develop our events, support our charity aims and our BIG ambition to get our communities moving.
We are really looking forward to seeing us grow the Brigg Poppy 10k experience and develop the free funetics coaching programme for our junior athletes in Scunthorpe.
It’s going to be an exciting time working in partnership with the lovely Singleton Birch team, who are just as excited as we are and we’ve had lots of very excitable chats about the future!
design - 2024 shown
2024 marked 80 years since the D-Day Landings and the Battle of Normandy that eventually led to the liberation of France and Europe.
While in the grand scheme of things we're just a small happy gang of community sporting event organisers, the nature of our Brigg Poppy 10k event means we have a unique opportunity to recognise those many brave people who fought for our freedom.
So our 2024 medal is a nod to those northern beaches in France, and the brave soles who went, many of which didn't return.
Almost impossible to imagine, but not possible to forget.
Take care
Curly
Our t-shirts are an optional extra, priced at £11.
T-shirt profits support our charities or support our free events we deliver... either through a direct contribution or we convert the money into discounted free race entries for the charity (allowing them to do even more fundraising!) ... so thanks for your support.
