Hello Fortius Family,
What a way to celebrate 10 years of Fortius.
Thunderbuddy Throwdown 2026 brought together everything that makes this community special: teamwork, grit, support, determination and a brilliant atmosphere from start to finish.
This year, 16 teams took on 5 workouts, with competitors, judges, volunteers, supporters and sponsors all playing their part in making the day such a success.
We’re absolutely delighted to announce that, together, we raised an incredible £2,539 for SAMH – Scottish Action for Mental Health.
That means we smashed last year’s total by over £400, which is an amazing achievement and a true reflection of the generosity and spirit of the Fortius community.
A huge thank you to everyone who competed, donated, judged, volunteered, sponsored raffle prizes, cheered from the sidelines and helped make the event happen. Days like this show that Fortius has always been about much more than fitness – it’s about people, community and supporting each other.
SAMH does vital work for mental health across Scotland, and we’re proud to have supported a cause that matters to so many.
Ten years in, Fortius is still built on the same foundations: coaching, community, fitness and fun.
Thank you for making Thunderbuddy Throwdown 2026 one to remember.
Team Fortius
