4th Annual 10K With A Cop 5k, 10k & 2 Mile Community Fun Run/Walk

Come celebrate the accomplishments of over 1000 youth within the 10K With A Cop program. These amazing kids have been training all year to complete a 10K and they could use the community's support to get them through the finish line.

To show our appreciation for over six years of support from the greater Modesto area we are making this event open to all. Join us for a 5k or 10K run starting and finishing in downtown Modesto. For those not up to running that distance, we offer a 2-mile fun run/walk for FREE.

10K With A Cop empowers at-risk youth to set goals, focus on health and wellness, and forge positive relationships with local law enforcement. Through weekly training sessions, police ofﬁcer mentors embed the importance of self-discipline and overall well-being through physical activity with the ultimate goal to complete a 10K run.

Get ready to roll into one of the most joyful days of the year in downtown Modesto! The MoChiMu Bike n’ Trike Family Ride & Fun Festival takes off promptly on Saturday, May 30, 2026 at 8:30 AM and invites families, friends, and little riders of all ages to gather at the Modesto Children’s Museum before rolling out together in a colorful parade of bikes, trikes, scooters, wagons, and other rolling rides - many sporting delightful balloon backpacks and playful group costumes. From MoChiMu we cruise a 2.2 mile route through downtown and along the Virginia Corridor before arriving at Roosevelt Park for a festival packed with fun. More than 25 community vendors host hands-on activities for kids alongside fire trucks, bottle rockets, games, dancing, and delicious food. Grab your crew, decorate your ride, and sign up today to celebrate joyful play while supporting the Modesto Children’s Museum’s mission to inspire creativity, critical thinking, and lifelong learning. 🚲☀️
