When I first moved to Atlanta, I was looking to step out of my comfort zone and try something new. After googling events, I came across something called The Great Urban Race. If you're familiar with the show The Great Amazing Race, is VERY similiar to it. Teams of two are given clues. Once the clue is solved, it sends you to a part of Atlanta. Once you reach your desitination, you usually have to do something wacky and you're given an item. There's bascially 12 clues and when you're done you go back to where the race started.
If your among the people with the fastest times, you qualify to compete in the championship race that will take place later in the year. It's fun as hell!!!! By the way, you're not allowed to drive your own vehicle. You can only take public transportation.
Because I moved to Atlanta only a few months before I competed in the event, I wasn't really much help solving any of the clues. Do yourself a favor and google it and see when it comes back to Atlanta.
I'd love to do it again, so if anyone is interested let me know. read more
