Get ready for a heartwarming day of fitness and fun at the 24th Annual Sweetheart Run & Walk on Saturday, February 14, 2026, in the picturesque Litchfield, Northwest Hills. Participants of all ages are invited to lace up their shoes for a scenic 5-mile run or a leisurely 3-mile walk, winding through beautiful wooded paths and along charming dirt and paved roads. This year promises an exciting atmosphere with on-course support, delicious refreshments, and an inclusive awards ceremony for various age groups, all taking place indoors at the Litchfield Community Center after the race.

Families can take advantage of free registration for children aged 10 and under, and those aged 80 and above also race for free! For those looking to participate, please note that race day registration will be available from 9:00 AM to 10:45 AM for $35, and the price increases after noon on February 12. Join us for an unforgettable day of camaraderie, fitness, and community spirit!
