Hot Fudge Sundae Run

Get ready to lace up and indulge your sweet tooth at the Hot Fudge Sundae Run, set to take place on Sunday, June 7, 2026, in Fresno, CA. This delightfully unique event, hosted by California Classic Events, offers participants a choice between a timed 5K run/walk or a relaxed, untimed 2-mile walk, making it perfect for runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. The scenic courses wind through Woodward Park, with the start and finish lines conveniently located at the Shinzen Group Activity Area. Typical race day conditions in early June see highs around 90°F and lows around 63°F, with a minimal 1% chance of precipitation, so prepare for a warm, sunny morning.

What truly sets the Hot Fudge Sundae Run apart is the decadent reward awaiting every finisher: a customizable hot fudge sundae! Imagine crossing the finish line and building your dream sundae with a choice of ice cream, brownies, hot fudge, caramel, whipped cream, cherries, sprinkles, M&Ms, and more. This sweet celebration is complemented by a festive post-race party featuring music and awards. All participants will also receive a custom finisher's medallion and an official event shirt, with free downloadable race photos to capture your memorable experience.

Beyond the personal achievement and delicious treat, the Hot Fudge Sundae Run supports a meaningful cause, with proceeds benefiting Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). The 5K distance is also a proud part of the 10 Point Cal Classic Runner of the Year Series, adding a competitive edge for those striving for series points. Strollers are welcome to join in the fun, making it a truly family-friendly affair. Mark your calendars for a day of fitness, community, and an unparalleled sweet reward!
