Hotpod Co-founder Max Runs Ultra X Finland for CALM

Hotpod Yoga is raising money for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably)

Ultra X Finland 2026 · 27 June 2026 to 28 June 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Hotpod Yoga are joining the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) in their movement against suicide, the cause of death for 125 people every week in the UK and the single biggest killer of men under 50 and young people in the UK.

Story

As co-founder of Hotpod Yoga, I've spent the last 15 years helping build a community centred around wellbeing, connection, and supporting people's mental health.

One of the things I'm most proud of is our partnership with CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), a charity doing vital work to help prevent suicide and provide life-saving support to those who need it most.

This year, I wanted to do something personally to support that mission.

On 27th June, I'll be taking on Ultra X Finland, completing a 60km ultramarathon through the stunning landscapes of the Salpausselkä UNESCO Global Geopark. It'll be a significant physical and mental challenge, but it feels small compared to the challenges many people face every day with their mental health.

I'm aiming to raise £1,000 for CALM, with every penny helping to fund their life-saving services and ensure more people can access support when they need it.

If you're able to donate, I'd be incredibly grateful. £12.20 is enough to fund a life-saving call to CALM's suicide helpline, but any amount will go a long way. Thank you for supporting CALM's mission and brilliant cause.
