Proceeds from this event will go to support the D9 mission statement and overall initiative of enriching the lives of our youth in the 5 local elementary schools in District 9. Funds will be used to support programs in the school and continue to sponsor growing events in line with this overall goal.
You will receive professional, accurate chip timing which will be provided by Scenic City MultiSports. This is a family friendly event and we encourage all runners and walkers and their families to participate. Prizes will go to the Overall Male and Overall Female. All registrants that complete the run/walk will receive a commemorative medal with the D9 5K Hot Cocoa Run logo and year. Wired Coffee Bar serves hot cocoa to all runners/walkers post-race. D9's Hot Cocoa 5k Run/Walk and Kiddie K goal is to raise $10,000!
D9 is pleased and honored to have Iram Leon join us for D9's Hot Cocoa 5K/Kiddie K on November 14th at Harrison State Park. Iram is a true inspiration and has an amazing story. He was the first runner to cross the finish line at the Gusher Marathon in Beaumont, Texas on Saturday with a time of 3:07:35. But Leon, who has incuraible brain cancer, insisted that his 6-year-old daughter was technically the winner -- he pushed her in a stroller the entire 26-mile race. Iram has been featured on ESPN's E:60, Runner's World Today, and other media will be here with his daughter to be the Grand Marshal for the Kiddie K!
