Looking Forward to 2008 Season
Running Urban Dare races continues to be one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had. In 2008 we will continue to grow our race fields and we will put on over 30 Urban Dares across the country.
One of the things I most enjoy is that I still learn something every race, to make the next one even better. And that each race has its own twists.
We have a special event coming August 23 - 26. Urban Dare's Super Dare. Super Dare is a multi-day race that you begin by running Urban Dare Santa Monica. Then we kick it up a notch. You will use planes, trains and automobiles as you travel to various destinations and complete your required dares. We will challenge you, provide great fun, and give you an amazing race. Price includes 3 nights of hotels, rental cars, ground transportation, and airfares. Our goal is to keep you going by day and let you enjoy evenings.
You will begin the race on Saturday, August 23 at the noon start of Urban Dare Santa Monica. You will end the day in a nearby city. Sunday, August 24 will begin at 10:00am. Monday, Aug 25 we begin at 10am, and Tue, Aug 26 beginning at 10:00. You will wake up every day in a different city. The race officially ends at 8:00pm on Tuesday, Aug 26, but we expect everyone will be finished well before that time. At least one teammate must have a valid drivers license and will drive rental car. This is going to be an amazing race.
Over time, we will roll out new formats and continue to push the envelope in Urban Adventure.
