Superhero Heart Run Des Moines 2026
Superhero Heart Run Des Moines is a fundraising run and walk on October 4 at Raccoon River Park in Des Moines. The event is presented by Heart Heroes and Help-A-Heart to raise awareness and funds for congenital heart disease (CHD). It is described as a community fun run that includes events for children and families.
The event offers the following distances:
- 5K run/walk
- 1 mile fun run/walk
Day-of activities include walk-up registration, a Heart Angel remembrance ceremony, a Heart Heroes parade, and a Super Kids' Dash in addition to the main run/walk. The event page provides step-by-step instructions for registering participants and for adding children under an adult registration; organizers note an option to manage a child’s fundraising so the child does not need a separate registration email.
The fundraiser shows a current total of $5,380 raised toward a $25,000 goal (21% of goal) and lists sponsor support and team and donor leaderboards. Sponsorship opportunities are available and sponsors named include HyVee, SCHEELS, and Siegwerk. Organizers state that refunds are not available for inclement weather, health crises, non-attendance, personal conflicts, or other situations outside their control.
