How it works

4 Miles. Every 4 Hours. For 48 Hours.

The concept is simple. Every four hours, we head out for another four miles. We do it 12 times over the course of 48 hours, covering a total of 48 miles.

But here’s the best part: You don’t have to do all 48 miles to be part of it.

Join us for one run, a few runs, or take on the entire challenge. Every mile matters, and every person who shows up helps make this something special.

Each group run covers four miles.

Hours

One incredible weekend of movement and purpose.

Who can join?

Every Body. Every Pace. Everyone.

You don’t have to be a marathoner. You don’t have to be a runner. You don’t even have to know what a 4×4×48 Challenge is.

You just have to show up and move.

Whether you’re living with Parkinson’s, supporting someone who is, walking with friends, or looking for a meaningful way to challenge yourself, there’s a place for you.

There are no pace requirements. No expectations to complete all 12 runs. No pressure to keep up with anyone else.

Walk. Jog. Run. Move at your own pace.

One run or all 12. You’re part of the team.

Why we move

We Move for Something Bigger.

For individuals and families living with Parkinson’s, the challenges don’t wait. And neither should support.

Since 2009, the Parkinson’s Wellness Fund has been committed to helping families access the resources, services, and assistance they need to live a better quality of life, today.

Through immediate relief grants and direct support, we help bridge the gap between families and the care they fundamentally need.

The 4×4×48 Challenge is about more than miles. It’s about showing up for a community, raising awareness, and making a meaningful difference in the lives of people living with Parkinson’s.

Every step. Every mile. Every person matters.
