More Than Four 5.04k

The More Than Four 5.04k is a community run/walk event held annually in Traverse City, Michigan, with the 2025 race scheduled for September 20. The 5.04-kilometer distance symbolizes the 4% of federal cancer research funding allocated to pediatric cancer, with the extra 0.04 kilometers highlighting how small this percentage is. Founded by Conor Rigan, a pediatric brain tumor survivor, the event aims to unite participants in support of children battling cancer.

The race welcomes all ages, encourages strollers and wagons, and is untimed to promote inclusivity. Proceeds directly support pediatric cancer research and families affected by the disease. A kids' 0.04K dash and virtual run/walk options are also offered. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
