Ex-forces member to run 111km on Remembrance Day

He also wants to raise £11,111 for the Royal British Legion 

A ex-forces member will be running 111km on 11 November in memory of all men and women who have served or are serving in the British Forces. 

Christopher Hopkins from Bromley also hopes to raise £11,111 for the Royal British Legion.

So far he's raised just over £500.
