POSTPONED!
The Cocoa Classic 5k Race scheduled for February 14, 2026 has been postponed. Unfortunately, significant construction along the race route will continue through June 2026 preventing us from holding the event as scheduled.
We will refund all race registration and donations to the original form of payment and will send an update once a new date for the race is determined later this year.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to support@runcocoaclassic.com.
Thank you for your support!
The Cocoa Classic Team
Join us at 9am on February 14, 2026 at The Mount Vernon School in Sandy Spring, GA to run the fourth annual Cocoa Classic 5K!
A fun, fast, USATF certified loop course which can be used as a qualifier for the Peachtree Road Race.
Top finishers will receive prizes.
The event is raising money for children in Sandy Springs who are from economically challenged families and in need of new athletic shoes. We are partnering with www.shoesthatfit.com, a 501(C)(3) non-profit charity organization that donates new athletic shoes to elementary school-age children in need throughout the United States. Please consider donating to help purchase shoes by visiting the race website at www.runcocoaclassic.com.
