Money raised by the Four Miler supports a range of programs at the UVA Breast Care Program, including mammograms and genetic testing for women who would otherwise be unable to afford services, resources for newly diagnosed breast cancer patients and breast cancer research. UVA Cancer Center Director Thomas P. Loughran, Jr., MD, will serve as the race’s starter.
