Run With Your Heart offers 5K, 10K, 15K, and virtual race options, based in Jacksonville, North Carolina. The route begins and ends at Riverwalk Crossing Park. Ainsley's Angels of Eastern Carolina hosts the event, now in its 13th year. Proceeds benefit Ainsley's Angels in Eastern Carolina and Ainsley's Angels in America.
The course is flat and fast, set in a small-town environment designed to provide a larger race-day atmosphere. Participants, including runners, walkers, and riders, will travel through historic downtown Jacksonville. The 5K Run/Walk/Roll is designed to accommodate athletes of all abilities. A resource fair at the finish area continues the event's focus on inclusion after the race concludes.
