ETT Development Athlete Poppy Collingwood

Poppy grew up in Dartmoor, where she’s always been up for any activity, from skiing to climbing. It was only until the Covid lockdowns that she got into running, after finding inspiration from her ultra runner father (who is now a regular running buddy). 

Poppy’s first ultra race came in 2022 and led to her falling in love with the sport. With some promising results so far, she’s looking forward to growing in trail and ultra running.

Poppy’s Favourite trails to run on

⛰ The South West Coast Path - it provides never ending beautiful views of the coastline and you never get bored with the regular ups and downs. Plus you can have a quick post run dip! 

Best Trail Running Memory

🏃‍♀️ Running with all my family on Dartmoor in sideways rain and gale force winds. It’s just you, your family and the moor and there’s nothing more liberating.
