Who wants to join me?
I’m doing the 5-K.

I’m a big chocolate fan, so 6 chocolate stations, plus a medal, and a jacket! Woot!!!

Plus the location: Belle Island 😃
That’s enough enticement to “run” (more like walk somewhat quickly) for a 5K.

You can register online below OR in-person on Saturday or before the race.

The KONA Chocolate Run launched with everyone wanting the Kona Jacket. 15 years later it has evolved with a fast flat course, and packed with unforgettable views. Set on the scenic roads of Belle Isle, runners take in the Detroit skyline, the Ambassador Bridge, the Gordie Howe International Bridge, and Windsor’s waterfront. With wide, paved roads and no traffic, it’s perfect for personal bests or a relaxed, scenic run. Choose from the 5K, 10K, or 15K.

Wear your exclusive Kona Jacket during the event, then cross the finish line and step into something truly unforgettable: our legendary Chocolate Buffet. We’re talking multiple stations filled with all things chocolate—steaming hot cocoa, cakes and muffins, ice cream, chocolate-dipped treats, creamy chocolate milk, candies, and our fan-favorite chocolate bar carving station. It’s the perfect reward for a job well run.

And don’t forget to bring the family—the Kids 800m Sweet Fun Run kicks things off with big cheers and chocolatey smiles. Whether racing or cheering, there's something sweet for everyone on race day.
