Join the Sunflowers Team in honour of Pete and all those we walk for.In 2026, we mark 10 years since Pete’s passing—the inspiration behind Sunflowers. To honour his memory and the countless others whose lives have been lost to suicide, the Sunflowers Team is taking on the 100km Cotswold Way Ultra Challenge. This is more than a physical test—it's a tribute to resilience, remembrance, and the power of community.
🌄 The Challenge
On 13 and 14th June 2026…… Starting from Cirencester basecamp, the 100km Ultra Challenge looped route winds through the heart of the Cotswolds—rolling hills, charming villages, and stunning views. Whether you walk, jog, or run, you’ll be fully supported with rest stops, food, drinks, and a celebration finish.
(There are also 50km, 25km, and 10km options, so there’s a challenge for everyone).
💛 Why We Walk
Sunflowers was born from grief, but it blooms with hope. Every step we take is for someone we’ve lost, someone we support, and someone still finding their way. This Ultra Challenge is a pure reflection of what Sunflowers stands for—endurance, light, and love.
