The Phoenix Running Chocothon is a seven hour timed running challenge beside the River Thames in Walton on Thames. Rather than committing to a fixed distance, runners complete as many or as few laps as they choose, with distances ranging from 5K and 10K through Half Marathon and Marathon to ultra distance.

The event uses a flat 5.3K out and back course along the riverside towpath, with virtually no elevation gain or loss. Runners can stop after a single lap or continue throughout the seven hour period, making the format suitable for those targeting a particular distance or looking to see how far they can run.

The Chocothon has a distinctive chocolate theme, with the aid station stocked with chocolate alongside the usual runner refreshments. Flexible start times add to the relaxed format, while participants completing at least one lap qualify as finishers and can receive the themed finisher medal.
