It's impossible to qualify it really, but let's try. It's 25% Amazing Race, 15% Minute to Win It, 5% Scavenger Hunt, 3% Greco-Roman Wrestling, 1% Short Essay Response, 51% Crying. Yes, more than half of you will cry at some point.

Together, Joanna and I will be creating and hosting a city-wide race that will require you to run, crawl, drive, research, unearth, undress, decode, beg, barter, and be better (and faster) than everyone else. It won't be like anything you're imagining it's going to be. It will be so much more.

Here is all the information you need at this time:

DATE the race will take place on Sunday, August 5th (mark your calendars)
TIME tba
LOCATION greater los angeles/reception tba
TEAMS 3 to 4 individuals, no more, no less (yes, you are responsible for putting together your own team)
EARLYBIRD ADMISSION FEE $10 per person/$12 after July 15
PRIZES tba

Admission fee gets you several hours of exquisite joy and exceptional pain ... plus food and beverages. Entry fees cover race and reception expenses. Any remaining funds will go directly to charity, namely Save Our Boy.

So begin thinking about your team. What skills are you lacking, which will you need, and who among you has them? Build a team (invite people we don't know; we don't mind), give yourselves a team name, and pay the entry fee via cash, check or PayPal by 7/15. (You can email us to set up payment.) Train as you see fit, and arrive on August 5th, prepared to battle ... and laugh your asses off.
