Jonny Davies

A Mission Fueled by Purpose and Passion

Jonny Davies, a trailblazing endurance runner, who conquered an awe-inspiring 900 km journey, linking the five capitals of the United Kingdom and Ireland: Edinburgh, Belfast, Dublin, Cardiff, and London. This monumental 10-day run isn't just about testing physical limits—it's dedicated to raising awareness and funds for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), a charity combatting suicide and providing mental health resources. With Mountain King trail running poles as his trusted companion, Jonny is not only proving the power of resilience but also redefining ultra-endurance challenges.

Why This Run Matters

His goal: raise £100,000 with the help of community donations and matched funding from supporters like Lululemon.

Inspiring Resilience

Having transformed himself into an endurance athlete only a few years ago, Jonny exemplifies how anyone can overcome personal limits. Through his running club, Scrambled Legs, he has fostered a community of over 13,000 people, proving the role of sport in building physical and mental resilience.
