February is all about the heart — it’s American Heart Month, Valentine’s Day is coming up, and the city of Goodyear’s 2021 Heart & Sole race will encourage residents to run “together” apart.

This year’s virtual 5k or 1-mile walk/run will give families added flexibility to participate safely at their leisure.

Runners can complete the race any day at any time in February. All registrants will receive a swag bag with a long-sleeved race shirt, event cinch bag and finisher’s medal.
