Will Run for Chocolate

Let’s talk about chocolate, the Hot Chocolate 15k/5k, to be specific. I ran this in Columbus, Ohio, in 2012, and I loved every second of it! Today I’d like to write about the Expo, and next week I’d like to write about the race and post-race events. The expo was in downtown Columbus on a Saturday. I arrived with my peeps: Teresa, Deidre, Julie, and Tina. We had reserved two rooms through the race webpage, so we checked into our hotel, and then we went on to the expo. It was very big and user-friendly. Even better, it was full of CHOCOLATE! Chocolate fountains, chocolate tabs, hot chocolate. . . mm m m m m.

I picked up my bib and my swag. Hot Chocolate always has a cool item of clothing as the goody bag. In 2012 I got a windbreaker. This year the goody bag is super cool.

You didn’t think I’d share EVERYTHING here, did you? I’ve got all the info and pictures on the full post. Also, there is a secret first part to this post that I didn’t attach here. Click here to get the full post.
