AUGUST- The Great Urban Race

Derric found out about this fun race that was going on in Salt Lake. It is the same concept as The Amazing Race on tv. You get your clues and then have to figure out where you are going and then there are challenges that you have to complete at each location. They do these races in all of the major cities. It started off in Chicago and this is the first year that it has come to Salt Lake. There were only fifty teams that signed up this year and the top 25 would qualify for the National in New Orleans. We felt 50/50 odds were pretty good for us! We came in 11th and did qualify. The nationals are in November, 8 days before I am supposed to deliver! I am pretty sure I won't be able to get there with flight restrictions and all, but with a $10,000 grand prize it is very tempting to try!!! We had a blast and can't wait for next year when I am not 6 mths prego!
