Endeavour 192 - The Way of Winter - From bold challenges, life-long memories are made.

Pyllon Endeavour was a project that first started in 2018 on the West Highland Way. We set out then as a team of talented ultra runners to push each other to find new limits, and to come together as a community to inspire others and to raise awareness of mental health and wellbeing.

Ultra running has enriched our lives in so many ways and we hoped that more people might get involved in the sport or at least better understand our purpose.

In the following years, Endeavour continued, with our boldest event being our Scottish National Trail FKT - with the team running continuously across the country for 5 days, in winter. We tackled some of Scotland’s toughest terrain, and even now, still feel the fear of running in some of those areas! The hardship was worthwhile. We connected with the whole ultra community in Scotland and beyond, and had many conversations about mental health - conversations that would never have happened otherwise. Since our first Endeavour we also raised over £35,000 for the Scottish Association for Mental Health (SAMH).

This November, Pyllon Endeavour will return! And we are going back to where it all started. The West Highland Way. We’ll run from Milngavie, to Fort William and back home again - some 192 miles.

This year we are raising funds for the British Heart Foundation (BHF) for the vital research they do into heart and circulatory diseases. The BHF are working towards preventing these conditions from developing and helping those with existing conditions to have better, longer lives. We all know someone who’s life has been cut short - and the important role exercise plays in health and longevity. If you can spare any money please show your support by making a donation.
