Providence Heart to Start at Cook Park, Tigard
Providence Heart to Start is a timed race day offering 5K, 10K, and a Kids Fun Run at Cook Park in Tigard on February 13, 2027. The 5K and 10K use looped courses, and the Kids Fun Run is a 200 yard out-and-back. The event has both in-person and virtual participation options and is dog friendly.
The event is linked with the Providence Heart to Start free 12-week training program run by Basecamp Prevention + Wellness, part of Providence Heart Institute. Season 15 begins November 22, 2026, and the program emphasizes weekly interval training and group connection for participants preparing for the race. There is a local weekly meetup in SW Portland during the training season.
Race amenities and logistics include packet pickup information to be announced, food trucks and beer available for purchase, and an allowance for strollers with guidance to line up at the back of the start area. All 5K and 10K participants receive a Nike Dri-Fit race shirt, race bib, finisher medal, and a swag bag.
The event supports AED donations administered by the Providence St. Vincent Medical Foundation, a program that provides automated external defibrillators and related training to schools and community groups. Past results are available for previous years. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
