Hot Chocolate 5K

Event Details

The weather was perfect for the 2025 HC5K! Clear, crisp with little to no wind. The 2025 5K will be run on Sunday, February 16, with the hopes the weather will be chilly and clear. The rain/snow date is Sunday, March 2nd, just in case Mother Nature does not cooperate this year.

Start and finish at the Kent Island Elementary School and the course takes you along the scenic Cross Island Trail. So get out your running shoes and sweats and train for this fun 5K! Packet Pickup will be Sunday morning, race day, opening at 7:30 AM in the cafeteria of the school.
