Thank you for being part of an incredible race weekend and for supporting the Heart to Heart 5K! ❤️

2,650 participants. One incredible community. A whole lot of heart. ❤️🏃

What an unforgettable day at the SOLD-OUT Heart to Heart 5K! From the energy at the starting line to the cheers along the course, our community showed up in an incredible way. We’re grateful to every runner, walker, volunteer and supporter who helped make this year’s race such a memorable experience.

Thank you, Boulder, for showing up with so much heart. Until next year! 💙

We would be remiss not to acknowledge the recent passing of Bhikkhu Schober, whose generosity and compassion, together with his wife and partner of 48 years, Waduda Paradiso, helped create the Heart to Heart Fund in 2022. Born from their gratitude for the extraordinary cardiac care provided at B*H, the fund helps patients prevent, treat, and manage heart disease through direct financial assistance, education, and other support. Although Bhikkhu is no longer with us, his love, vision, and generous spirit live on through this work. The legacy he and Waduda created will continue touching the lives of Boulder Heart patients and their families for years to come.
