The Great Urban Race is a unique urban adventure.  Teams of two solve twelve clues, have a wild city adventure and complete fun challenges, while discovering the city in a fresh way!  The first 25 teams to complete the race will have the opportunity to compete in the National Championship race for a chance at $10,000.  The race is a great test of both physical and mental abilities, including puzzle solving, physical challenges and running.  Throughout the race, teams may also strategically incorporate the use of public transportation and high-tech devices, such as GPS units and smartphones.  In 2010 the Great Urban Race will partner with the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.  Visit www.greaturbanrace.com for more details.
