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 [email protected]. 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.
