Destination X star Nick Butter joining Alabaré’s Colour Dash and 10K Speedway
We’re thrilled to be welcoming running hero and reality TV star Nick Butter to participate in our event at Thruxton Circuit.
With less than two weeks to go until Alabaré’s first-ever Colour Dash and 10K Speedway event, we’re thrilled to be welcoming running hero and reality TV star Nick Butter to participate.
Nick’s best known for reaching the semi-final of the BBC’s Destination X game show, as well as being a successful author and endurance athlete, will be joining us at Thruxton Circuit on Saturday, 13 September.
We’ve partnered with what’s notoriously Britain’s fastest racetrack to host a 10-kilometre, chipped and timed event, over three laps for more serious runners.
That’ll include Nick, who became the first person to complete a marathon in every single country across the world.
The Colour Dash will then follow – a family-friendly, disco-themed run, jog, walk, wheel or boogie around one lap, accompanied by banging tunes, powdered paint stations and a foam finish!
The whole day will raise money so Alabaré can support more than 3,200 vulnerable and marginalised people in the South West and Wales every year, by providing homes, restoring hearts, and empowering minds.
Every step you take in the 10K Speedway and Colour Dash will help us to break the cycle of homelessness across our services with adults, young people, veterans, those with learning disabilities, and people facing mental health struggles.
Our supported living accommodation gives clients the tools to build confidence, improve their well-being, and boost employability.
Rebecca Mullen, Alabaré’s Prinicpal Lead for Events said:
“We are so pleased to have Nick Butter joining us for the 10K Speedway and Colour Dash at Thruxton later this month. The day promises to be a really powerful moment of compassion and solidarity with people experiencing homelessness, while also bringing plenty of fun, at a hugely popular venue.
“After his appearance on one of TV’s biggest new shows, we are grateful that he is taking the time out of his schedule to support us in ending homelessness.”
