Discount for Hot Chocolate 15K & 5K Tampa

Have you ever run the Hot Chocolate 15K or 5K? It's a race series that travels across the continent rewarding racers with a fun theme and lots of chocolate. They serve some of the creamiest hot chocolate I've tasted.

This year the race returns to Tampa on December 15. Keep reading to see the swag and while you're here, grab my discount code to SAVE $5 Off your TAMPA registration.

SAVE $5 or Score a Hat with Discount Codes

I just got this code that gives you $5 off your registration: DHARATKFBO (case sensitive).

Try to use it before the prices for both races go up on December 1st!

This discount code only works for the TAMPA races. If you want an extra perk for another city, use the city-specific codes on my race discounts page. That code gets you a HC15K/5K running hat. 

​If you're in Tampa and want a running hat instead of $5 off, use code BRHCTAMPA19.

New this season: Hot Chocolate Races are going GREEN. The finisher mugs and cups are made of biodegradable materials. It's a good first step for this race series.

FYI: You can drink and eat this delicious dark chocolate if you worry about gluten and nut allergies.

​The recipe is gluten-free and has no compounds. It's also nut-free.

There are three "sweet stations" on the 15K course. If you need a chocolate fix during the race, you can get it on the run.

Enjoy a Festive Run Along Bayshore Boulevard

Check out my favorite photo from last year: Olaf Racers! There were lots of runners dressed up in holiday gear. The race course takes you all along Bayshore Boulevard with views of Tampa Bay and beautiful homes decorated for the season. This race always puts me in a holiday mood.

Last year I ran behind these snow women! Love all the creative costumes out on the course. (Photo credit: This Old Runner)
