Hot Chocolate Run Report (Read 179 times)

    Not much to say except that it was a blast!  It was a 5K to support a Domestic Violence Center.  There were 5,500 people between the 5K and the 2 mile walk.  I did not race, I just ran it to be with a fabulous group of people and to support a good cause.

     

    Finished in 31:15.  1830/3225 runners.  There were great bands, wonderful crowd support and over $225,000 was raised to help!

      Looks like it was really cold but you had fun!  That's awesome!  Love the pics!  Thanks for sharing!

      But The Smile That I Sent Out Returned With You.


      Sloooow.

        Sounds like a fun event, and for a good cause too!

         

        I hope there really was hot chocolate! Lol.

          Our swag was coffee mugs....which we then filled with rich, creamy hot chocolate and marshmallows and candy canes.  Delicious!

             Not only is their hot chocolate (made in the giant beer brewing vat of a local brewery), but entrants get a mug designed by a local artist. Hope to do this run next year.

                That is a nice pic, and good idea with the PJ's!  The next event you will be ready to actually race.

                    Congrats! I ran this race last year. Lots of fun!

                    Running is my mental-Ctrl-Alt-Del. 

                      Great outfit. 

                       

                      MMMmmmmm, I love hot chocolate. We're having a bit of a break from the cold...so I'll have to wait a few days to have some.

                        Hey Kim!  It has been unseasonably warm.  You know who makes some good hot chocolate?  Surprisingly Tim Hortons.

                          Okay, if your going to make a recommendation, I guess next cold day...I'm agoin' to Tim Hortons.

                            I think it is tasty as heck.  Nevertheless, fingers crossed!
