My name is Alex Sparkes.

I am raising money for two charities this Christmas through my 24 Hours All In running event.

The first charity Force, supported my mum during her breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. It was a tough time for everyone, but made easier with their support & guidance. For which, I am forever grateful.

The second charity, Devon Hospital Charity specifically their Bramble children's ward. Everyone deserves to feel some joy at Christmas. So money raised will be used to buy mystery presents that will be put in the waiting room for this ward where the children can take one for themselves. So that the young people who have the misfortune of needing to be in hospital can receive a gift.

The event itself will consist of running a 6.6km loop every hour for 24 hours. Sounds fun right?

The event will start at 12pm 14th December and finish 12pm 15th December. The loop will start and finish at Exeter Quay in the Transit Shed where we will have a base for food and water. Feel free to come down 11:30am -12:30 pm to see us finish the event!

Any donation can make a huge difference to those involved with either of these charities. Their work is exceptional.
