The race, a hybrid of the television show The Amazing Race, is an annual family friendly race being conducted in various NFL aimed at encouraging families to engage in physical activity together. The race is designed for teams of 2, of which one or both participants must be of school age (grades 1-12). Teams can choose recreation level (teams who prefer to go at a leisure pace) or competitive level (teams who are more physically active).
Teams will race around a 1 mile cross country course while completing a variety of fun activities along the way. Teams will race against the clock and other teams relying on skill and teamwork to complete the challenges. Past races have utilized props such as blindfolds, sponges, fishing rods, military obstacles to add a little spice to the competition.
Prizes will be awarded to the 6 division winners: Pee Wee (Grades 1-3), Midgets (Grades 4-6), Juniors (Grades 7-9), Varsity (Grades 10 & older), Adult (F)/Child team, and Adult (M)/Child team. There are spots for only 50 teams in each race and participants are encouraged to register early.
