11th Annual Hot Cocoa Race sponsored by Sylvania Prevention Alliance

A great family event that will help chase away the winter blues!

Our Hot Cocoa 10K/5K/1Mile Race is being held in partnership with Olander Park. The race starts at 9am and there will be multiple corals for a safe start. In addition to the 5K and 10K, we are having a 1 mile race for our elementary age runners.

The 1 Mile Race or Walk will be the 1 mile loop around Olander Lake. We are offering a 1 mile timed race for kids and a 1 mile timed event for adults. (Whether you race or walk, you will get a time) The 1 mile course will stay in Olander park and go around the beautiful lake.

The 5K Race will start at the Nederhouser Community Building, run south on the trail, exit out of Olander Park, cross Sylvania Ave into Farmbrook neighborhood, run onto the university parks trail to McCord Rd, head north on McCord to Sylvania Ave to Olander, and then circle the lake to finish in Olander Park at the Neiderhouser. The 10K will follow the same course, but continue onto the University Parks trail, before coming back to the 5K course to finish. The courses are open to traffic and not a closed course. (Maps will be provided online and at packet pick-up)

Proceeds will go toward our youth programs for promoting positive, healthy lifestyle choices and the prevention of drug, alcohol use and other at-risk behaviors in our community. Sylvania Prevention Alliance provides programs that offer guidance and education and sponsors positive events that develop leadership and team building skills.

Hot Cocoa and grab and go snacks will be available after the race finish.

Age group awards will be awarded after the conclusion of the races.

After February 4th, there will be no shirt guarantee and early bird pricing will end!!!

The RELAY CHALLENGE is a community event for 6-12 grade students of Sylvania and Sylvania Township to participate in a unique and memorable experience. The Relay will include as many as 20 teams, made up of ten (10) members each. Each participant will run or walk at least one mile at a time, then pass the timing chip to the next member, and so on. This process will continue for the entire event.

While the teams are circling the track, there will be continuous activities, entertainment, and food -- plus a chance to meet others who choose a healthy lifestyle. Without a doubt, it will definitely be hours of memorable fun for everyone

WE WELCOME ALL ABILITY LEVELS AND RACE DISTANCES!!!

From the first-time 5K runner to the seasoned BQ marathoner, Dave's Fall Training Series will have you ready to put your best foot forward at the Garmin Marathon Series from 5K to the marathon, as well as the Columbus & Detroit Marathons. With a complete training plan crafted by Dave's Training Director, Bob Masters, and implemented by over 20+ enthusiastic coaches, you're in very capable hands.

Training the Dave's Way means joining a supportive and fun community of runners and walkers who are all about staying healthy, accountable, and motivated!

REGISTER BEFORE MAY 11TH AND RECEIVE 4 ADDITIONAL WEEKS OF BASE TRAINING TO HAVE YOU GOING STRONG WHEN THE OFFICIAL PROGRAM KICKS OFF ON JUNE 8TH

BEGINNER 5K & HALF-MARATHON PLANS AS WELL AS RUN-WALK OPTION

Looking to run your first 5K? With Dave's Beginner 5K program, you have a detailed plan that mixes walking and running together until you are out there running 3.1 miles on your own.

If you are someone who prefers to run-walk, we have a half-marathon plan with coaches who train using a run-walk training method for the half-marathon distance. This "open pace" training plan is also used for anyone looking to complete their first marathon, and goal time is not a factor.

REMOTE TRAINING OPTION (online)

The Training Tilt app has been such a game-changer for our remote trainers that we’re now making it an option for everyone in the program! One of its standout features is the interactive training calendar, which lets you sync your Strava account or Garmin device to keep your workouts organized and on track.

The Dave's REMOTE TRAINERS will receive weekly coaching advice and encouragement from Dave's Training Team on the Training Tilt platform.
