NEXTON HOSTS 4TH ANNUAL COCOA CUP 5K SPONSORED BY O2 FITNESS
Nexton, a master planned community located in Summerville, South Carolina, is honored to host the 4th Annual Cocoa Cup 5K on Saturday, December 16, 2017 starting at 9 a.m. Presented by Fleet Feet Sports and sponsored by O2 Fitness, this year’s event will draw over 2,000 participants for an exciting holiday-themed 5K race and holiday celebration.
The Cocoa Cup 5K event consists of a 5K race as well as a one-mile kids fun run for children under the age of 12, both taking place along a scenic route in Nexton. At the finish line, participants are invited to stick around for a post-race holiday celebration and awards ceremony. The after-party includes music and holiday-themed activities, vendors and of course, delicious hot cocoa.
“The Cocoa Cup 5K is one of our favorite events of the year to host because it mirrors the spirit of Nexton from healthy living to community bonding, all wrapped with the excitement of the season,” says Cassie Cataline, marketing director for Nexton. “We are thrilled to welcome O2 Fitness as the main sponsor for the 2017 race and thankful to Fleet Feet Sports for managing the event.”
Each overall winner will receive a grand prize gift basket and individual prizes will be awarded to the top three finishers in each age and gender category. Each child under 12 who participates in the one-mile kids fun run will receive a finishers medal.
