Asheville Hot Chocolate Races začínajú aj končia pri Isaac Dickson Elementary School v Asheville, North Carolina. Všetky štarty sú ráno. Na podujatí si dospelí a staršie deti môžu vybrať 5K, 10K alebo half marathon, zatiaľ čo pre menšie deti majú Kids 1K Hill Climb alebo 100-yard Marshmallow Dash. Výťažok z tohto podujatia ide na podporu Isaac Dickson Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization a už od roku 2008 je to klasika v zimnom bežeckom kalendári v Western North Carolina. Trať začína z kopca, potom väčšinu trasy vedie pozdĺž French Broad River greenway cez Asheville’s River Arts District a pred cieľom ťa čaká stúpanie. Celá séria začala s 10K a kids hill climb, ale neskôr sa to rozrástlo na komplexnejšie rodinné podujatie s kratšími detskými pretekmi a dlhšími traťami pre dospelých. Tí, čo dokončia 5K, 10K a half marathon, dostanú tričko, štartové číslo na mieru a medailu; deti dostanú tričko, štartové číslo a stužku. Všetci účastníci dostanú horúcu čokoládu od French Broad Chocolates a najlepší dospelí bežci dostanú ručne vyrobené pamätné hrnčeky.
