NR Road Racing presents a chocolatey good time. We are offering you sweet treats 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-oholic strangers. It doesn’t matter how fast or old you are; everyone is welcome to participate and join in the fun! After the race, we’ll be still partying and filling up with chocolate. You are invited to hang out and party to the music and have some more chocolate on us! Family and friends are always encouraged to join in the party at the end!

At AdoptAClassroom.org, they are giving teachers a hand. Teachers spend as much as $1000 out of their own pockets every year to make their classrooms into the best possible learning conditions for students. AdoptAClassroom.org provides teachers with a crowdfunding tool that allows them to get the supplies they need for the classroom without spending their own hard-earned money. Funds raised in the Chocolate 5k will benefit AdoptAClassroom.org and their local campaign to get necessary supplies into Twin Cities classrooms. Visit AdoptAClassroom.org for more information.

“AdoptAClassroom.org is so excited to be working with NR Road Racing to bring the Chocolate 5K to our new hometown in Minneapolis! We are just gearing up to make a big impact in Twin Cities schools and this event is a great opportunity to kick off that fundraising,” stated Emily from AdoptAClassroom.org.
