HOW THE AMAZING RACE CONTEST WORKS
 This skills competition is all about FUN, WELLNESS and TEAMWORK. Since 2011, racers ages 5 to 85 have been pairing up with family members, friends and co-workers testing their 2 person teamwork skills against other similar age teams. Walk, jog or run ~ this race is way more fun than a 5k race! 
 Modeled after the popular TV show, 2 person teams complete a 3K cross country course with a series of fun-filled physical & mental challenge stations every 300 yards. Clue cards at each station describe a task (sports, games, relays, obstacles, etc.) that require problem solving & the cooperation of both racers in order to complete (aka ~Teamwork), before advancing to the next station. The top finishers in each age group are declared the winners.  
 
1. Ages: Open for ages 5 to 85 ... walkers, joggers and runners.
2. Teams: Teams consist of 2 persons ... adult/adult, adult/kid or kid/kid.
3. Courses: Recreation for leisure pace teams / Competitive for physically active teams.
4. Race Divisions: Based on the age/grade of the younger team member. 
               (Grades K-3 / Grades 4-8 / Grades 9- Age 39 / Ages 40 & older.)
5. Waves: Waves begin every 10 minutes – kids’ teams, then adult teams.
