March 28–29, 2026 · Washington Park, Denver

24 Hours

One man. One park. 24 hours of running. All to give children with cancer a year of play, laughter, and hope.

The Cause

Fundación Mark

Fundación Mark has been transforming the lives of children with cancer in Mexico since 2006. They build and operate hospital playrooms — ludotecas — where kids undergoing treatment can play, learn, laugh, and just be kids again.

With 7 playrooms across Mexico and over 15,000 children impacted, every playroom gives hospitalized kids moments of normalcy, imagination, and hope during the hardest fight of their lives.

The goal of this run is to fund one playroom's full-year operation — giving hundreds of children a space to heal through play.

The Schedule

24 Hours of Grit

Saturday, March 28

5:00 PM — The Start

The gun goes off. 24 hours on the clock. Running the Washington Park outer loop until the body says stop — and then keeping going.

Saturday Night

Through the Dark

The hardest hours. Running through the night under the Denver sky. This is where purpose meets pain.

Sunday, March 29

10:00 AM – 2:00 PM — The Wellness Party

The community shows up. FlowState Wellness brings the mobile sauna and cold plunge. RECON Wellness sets up the recovery station. Joggy Energy keeps everyone fueled. Music, drinks, vibes, and a damn good time.

Sunday, March 29

5:00 PM — The Finish

24 hours. It's done. Every mile counted. Every dollar raised means a child gets to play, laugh, and forget about their diagnosis — even if just for a moment.

How to Support

Show Up. Run With Me.

You can support me by showing up and running a lap or two with me. I will need all the help I can get. Whether it's one loop or just being there to cheer — your energy matters.

Location

Washington Park

The base camp is set up on the west side of the park near S Downing St, right along the Washington Park Outer Loop. Look for the setup near Grasmere Lake.

I'll be running the outer loop continuously for 24 hours. The wellness party and sponsor stations will be at the base camp location.

Every Mile Matters
