Virtual Sports Triad of Poczta Polska - Birthday of King Zygmunt II Augustus and charity
Poczta Polska, together with partners from the company's capital group, once again organizes a virtual sports event for employees and their loved ones and supporters of the company - a virtual sports triad. Similarly to last year, the purpose of organizing this sporting initiative is to celebrate the next anniversary of the birth of the founder of Poczta Polska - King Zygmunt II August - and financial assistance for the beneficiaries of the "Pocztowy Dar" Foundation and local sports clubs. The Virtual Sports Triad will take place from October 16-31 this year.
The virtual events of Poczta Polska, initiated last year, is an attempt to find an alternative to the pandemic for the traditional way of the Polish Post Office. In 2020, the event organized for employees for the first time replaced an open run, in which everyone could take part anywhere and at the distance of their choice (2 km, 5 km, 10 km or a cross -country triad). From September 10-18 last year, a total of over 1,400 people ran with Poczta Polska. Thus, it was one of the largest virtual runs organized in Poland in 2020.
This year, taking into account the popularity of virtual running and positive opinions of the participants themselves, the post office organizes a virtual event not only for running lovers. In a virtual sports triad, people who like to march and ride a bike or all of three disciplines (march, run, cycling) can also start. Everyone will also find the right distance for them - 2 km (run), 5 km (run, march), 10 km (run, march, cycling) or 15 km (cycling). In three disciplines you can start at any distances or on a bonus distance: 5 km march - 10 km run - 15 km cycling. The event lasts two weeks, from 16 to 31 October. Triad partners are companies from the Poczta Polska Capital Group: Envelo, Postdata, Bank Pocztowy, Poczta Polska Dystrybucja and Postillion PTE.
Triada is primarily a sports initiative celebrating the Festival of Poczta Polska (501th birthday of King Sigismund II August, whose figure is associated with the creation of Poczta Polska), but also encouraging physical activity in the open air. Although these are not typical sports competitions, people who like to compete can fight for cups at the longest distances in individual disciplines and in a bonus triad (5 km march-10 km Bieg-15 km cycling). Each participant of the triad will also receive a commemorative medal with a set of gifts (including running scarf, philatelic publishing house, commemorative start number).
Similarly to last year, PLN 5 from each starter package will be allocated to help the charges of the "Pocztowy Dar" Foundation. Through it, local sports clubs will receive help that will facilitate their functioning and training for small and slightly larger sports lovers. The starter package depending on whether the participant will choose to participate in one discipline or in three costs PLN 49 or PLN 59. For an additional fee you can also buy a commemorative high -quality technical t -shirt.
Last year, a total of over 13,974 zlotys were collected from money from packages and individual payments from participants of the virtual run, which went to two football clubs and one local dance club. The possibility of additional payments for the Foundation was also launched this year.
You can sign up to participate in the Virtual Sports Triad of Poczta Polska via the website until the last day of the event.
We cordially invite you to sports competition and help.
