The Chocolate 5K Indianapolis

FOR THE CHOCOHALIC RUNNER

NR Road Racing presents a chocolatey good time. We are offering you a sweet treat to keep you going throughout the 5k.

Yes there will still be water stations, but for those of you with a sweet tooth, you can also have a little piece of joy. Enjoy a family friendly three mile course with your friends, family, and other choc-aholics strangers. Doesn’t matter how fast or old you are; everyone is welcome to participate and join in the fun!

What kind of chocolate will we be enjoying?

Well, we’ll be providing Ghirardelli ® chocolates to our participants. Expect some in your goodie bag & then along the route. We’ve also dug up a blast from the past for some of you. Do you remember Choc-ola®? Choc-ola was bottled from 1944 – 2001 but disappeared around 2003. Manufacturing was resumed in 2011 and we hope that you’ll enjoy some fond memories when you see & taste that old but familiar brand.

The Chocolate: All chocolates are compliments of NR Road Racing. It is not mandatory if you take any, but you are more than welcome to have a sweet treat on us! There will be chocolate stations set up along the three mile course and of course, some more at the end!
