Great urban race

Yesterday I ran the Great Urban Race in Philly with my friends Katherine, Brian, and AJ. It was so much fun. Basically its a huge scavenger hunt around the city. At the start they give you 12 clues and you have to complete 11 of them. They were little brain teasers that brought you to different locations. At the locations you had to get pictures of your team doing certain things and pick up answers to questions or business cards as proof that you were there. You could do them in any order. There were some teams that were very serious. They brought maps and were sprinting around clues. Then there were teams like us who walked and stopped for snacks. But we did so much better than we thought! When we got back we were surprised to see some running teams behind us. It was a really great time and I would suggest it to anyone who is looking for something new to try.
Here is a picture of our team completing one of the clues.
