Team up with some friends or family for the Atlanta Challenge.  This “Amazing Race” style game calls it itself “Part 5K, Part Scavenger Hunt and Part Urban Exploration” and is like nothing you’ve done before. (Well, unless you did it last year or have actually been on The Amazing Race!)  You and your team have the chance to win a $300 prize and have a ton of fun while doing so.  There is also a prize for best costume and for the top family team.  Your route will usually be around 3-4 miles and take about 2 hours to complete, requiring brains as much as brawn.  People of all ages (must have a responsible party over the age of 18 on each team) and fitness levels are encouraged to participate.
