Charlevoix Hot Cocoa Run
The Charlevoix Hot Cocoa Run takes place on 12/05/2026 in Charlevoix, Michigan at 327 Bridge Street. The event includes a main running event with measured distances and a separate 1 mile fun run.
Distances:
- 5K out-and-back on Belvedere/Ferry Avenue
- 2 mile option on the same out-and-back course
- 1 mile fun run starting on Ferry Avenue
The 5K and 2 mile use an out-and-back layout on Belvedere/Ferry Avenue with turnarounds marked at the halfway points; the 2 mile uses the nearer turnaround. The 1 mile fun run goes half a mile uphill and returns to the start. There is no official race timing; a clock will be available at the finish.
Bib pickup is available the morning of the event between 10:00 and 11:00 or the day before at Charlevoix Running Company from 11:00 to 17:30. Registration windows and fees are published for each distance with the main race fee listed as $15.00 and the 1 mile fee listed as $10.00.
Participants in the 1 mile fun run receive a mug at the finish. A downtown hot chocolate event runs from 12:00 to 16:00. Proceeds support the Charlevoix Rayder Den and Charlevoix Elementary School holiday food bags. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
