Heart to Heart 5K returns Sept. 27, 2026
& supports patients with cardiac care costs
Boulder Community Health is proud to partner with Boulderthon to present the
3rd Annual Heart to Heart 5K on Sept. 27, 2026 in Downtown Boulder to raise funds for our Boulder Heart
patients to support treatment and management of their cardiac health,
wellness and recovery. We look forward to running, jogging and walking
with you Sept. 27.
Run, walk or donate for heart health
All finishers will receive a race medal, limited-edition lululemon shirt
($88 value) and timing chip.
Donations made during registration directly support the Heart to Heart
Fund, a patient assistance program that helps cardiac patients manage
the financial burdens of ongoing cardiovascular treatment. This year’s
event will bring together 2,500 runners, joggers and walkers for one of
the Top 5K race experiences in the country, all for a remarkable cause.

More than half of people in the U.S. (51%) do not know that heart disease
is the leading cause of death in our country, for men and women, according
to recent data shared by the American Heart Association. Heart disease,
though, has been the #1 killer for more than a century – and this
lack of knowledge and awareness is potentially deadly.
Every
34 seconds in the U. S. - an adult dies from cardiovascular disease (CVD) (Source:
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention – CDC). These are mothers,
fathers, sisters, brothers and friends—all gone because of a disease
that is usually preventable.
Research has shown that physical activity is one of the most important
things you can do for your health, particularly cardiovascular health.
Physical activities, such as running and walking, have been shown to reduce
heart attacks, strengthen heart muscles and reduce blood pressure, amongst
other benefits.
