About the PoHo Hot Cocoa 2027
The PoHo Hot Cocoa runs several distances, all starting and finishing at Wrigley Center in Port Huron. The event takes place during the downtown Chilly Festival weekend, so the area around the venue is already buzzing. It is a winter road race, and the Wrigley Center setting keeps things sheltered and social rather than scattered across a remote trailhead.
Packet pickup runs the evening before the race at Wrigley Center, with a second window on race morning. Parking is plentiful nearby. After the races, the party moves inside the venue: hot chocolate, a live band performing before and after, and the broader festival crowd filling out the day.

The PoHo Hot Cocoa 2027 has been held every year since at least 2015. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 23, 2026.
