Why We Run:
The best part? Proceeds from this event benefit the Ladybug CDH Foundation, whose mission is to: Raise public awareness about Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH), a potentially life-threatening birth defect affecting 1 in 2,500 children annually.
Fund critical medical research.
Provide direct support to families in the Pacific Northwest facing the challenges of CDH.

Survivor/Angel Signs:
We line the sidewalks at Cook Family Park with signs remembering and honoring Angels and Survivors. If you have a CDH Angel or Survivor you would like represented with a sign, please contact us at ladybugcdh@gmail.com. Send us a few sentences about their story and 2-3 photos. We'd love to be able to honor your CDH warrior. 

Don’t wait—register today to lace up your shoes, make a difference, and help us support families impacted by CDH. Together, we can bring hope and make strides for this important cause.

Race Course

5K COURSE10K COURSE

Runners and walkers alike will enjoy making their way through the beautiful, stroller-friendly 5K course that begins in Cook Park in Tigard and winds it’s way west through paved and cool, shaded forest trails next to the Tualatin River for the first mile. At the end of the paved trails, a short, but challenging hill brings our runners and walkers out of Cook Park onto 108th Avenue and north though Tigard neighborhoods and turning back east on wide sidewalks along Durham Road through mile 2 and turning south at Tigard High School down 92nd Avenue and back into Cook Park and past the mile 3 marker near the butterfly garden area and through a shaded corridor to the start/finish line!

The 10K run course continues through and past the start/finish line but instead of repeating the 5K course, turns south on the Tualatin River trail to the Cook Park boat launch area and winding along the Tualatin river and under the railroad tracks turning south onto the Fanno Creek Greenway Trail, across the Tualatin River on the pedestrian bridge and past the Tualatin Dog Park and looping back north at the northern edge of Tualatin City park through a scenic section of woods right next to the Tualatin River. Exiting the woods runners will be pop back on the Tualatin River Greenway and continue north back across the river and following the Fanno Creek Greenway trail on a loop around the Durham Park Off leash area, on north again to a short out and back at the edge of Cook Park and back south and following the trails to the turn for home at the butterfly garden back to the finish line!
