From the Organizer

Matthew was a brave young boy who lost his life at just 9 years old after a valiant fight against leukemia. Throughout his journey, he showed incredible resilience and positivity. He continued to attend school, play, and bring joy to those around him with his humor and determination. His unwavering spirit and courage are the driving forces behind Miles 4 Matthew.

Matthew was first diagnosed with ALL at the age of 4. He beat cancer, but in 2022, he faced a rare relapse. Even through it all, he remained upbeat, strong, and full of life. His story continues to inspire us to support other families and carry on his legacy.

In his honor, Matthew’s family and friends created Miles 4 Matthew to provide financial support to families facing pediatric cancer, while raising awareness and spreading hope.

We invite you to join us at the Miles 4 Matthew Race on Saturday, October 17, 2026, at No Label Brewing Co. Choose your distance—10K, 5K, or 1K—and be part of something bigger than a race.

Run in honor. Run for hope. Run for families who need us.

Because every mile matters—and every family deserves support.

About This Sport

From Endurance Grid's Founder

Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.

The 10K is the distance where running stops feeling like a starting point and starts feeling like a sport. Long enough to require a real training block. Short enough that race day is fully manageable for a first-timer who's put in the work.

Race day energy at a 10K is community at its best — strangers cheering you by name, people moving toward the same goal, an atmosphere that solo training can't replicate. It's fast enough that you'll spend the whole race pushing rather than managing your effort.

This is also the distance that builds the base for everything else. Most athletes who go on to run half marathons, do triathlons, or compete in HYROX started here. What you need: running shoes fitted to your stride, a training plan, and the race on your calendar. The registration is what makes the deadline real.

How long to train: 4–8 weeks for most fitness levels.

Running
