Hot Cocoa Crush 5K & 10K Queens
Hot Cocoa Crush is a road race held at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, with the start and finish on the north side of the Queens Theater. The event offers looped courses measured for race timing.
- 5K
- 10K
The course uses repeated loops: the 5K is described as two loops and the 10K is four loops of the 5K course. Runners must cross the finish-line mats on each loop for accurate split times and synced photos.
On-course and event amenities include hydration at the finish line, handheld and high quality refreshments provided at the finish, porta-johns near the finish area, and bathroom facilities within a short walk of the start and finish. An informal bag check area will be available; the organizer cannot accept responsibility for personal belongings. Event apparel such as a Cocoa Crush tee is offered.
A virtual participation option lets entrants post a time within the event window and upload up to five photos. Bibs can be mailed for a fee when requested in advance; bib-wearing instructions note placement on the mid-torso, visible and secured at four corners.
Results, same-day finish line photos, and video are published online. Age-group recognition is given to top finishers overall and across standard age brackets. Proceeds benefit the Never Stop Running Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
