Tokyo Yamathon 2026 - Team Fundraising Challenge

We are the Saitama Pheasants, a group of international YouTubers who live and work in Japan. Since we all arrived to Japan a few years ago, this country has given us so much. So, we want to give back.

As two of us focus primarily on trains in the content we create, particpating in the Yamathon was a no-brainer for us. A 30 station, 34.5 kilometer long loop line running around the heart of Tokyo. One that carries millions of people to work or school every single day. Riding the Yamanote line in a loop is one thing, but walking the entire line in one day is another. It will be difficult, but more than worth it to support the great causes that the Yamathon benefits.

No amount is too small. Even the smallest donations can help the incredible organizations the Yamathon supports. 

No matter what, we thank you for your support. Please wish us luck as we partake in the ultimate urban challenge: THE YAMATHON!

Thank you for walking with us! ありがとうございます！
