The Hot Chocolate 15k/5k, coined as America’s Sweetest Race, was established in 2008 and wound through the streets of Chicago, Illinois. Since then, over 200,000 participants around the country have joined in, making it one of the nation’s fastest growing race series. Benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the San Francisco event will begin at the Music Concourse in Golden Gate Park and head west toward the Great Highway where it will turn south and take runners nearly to Sloat Boulevard before looping back on a return to the finish line in the park. At the finish line, participants will be treated to music, hot chocolate, chocolate fondue and more.
