Yep, You Can Run Virtually This Season

If you can't make it to a certain location, no worries! You can run a Hot Chocolate Race Virtually wherever you are.

I can tell you — I enjoyed running virtually last year. It's a great way to experience America’s Sweetest Race when you aren't ready to travel or aren't comfortable racing in-person.
