The Human Race

The Human Race—a pseudo road rally-slash-scavenger hunt that's like a hyper-local The Amazing Race, only far more cerebral than physical—has traveled around the tristate area for over 30 years and will next take place in Manhattan's Times Square. On Saturday, May 31 beginning at noon, participating teams will race around New York collecting and dicephering various locally-minded clues, walking, running and hopping on public transportation to get to the next phase of the rally. All of the proceeds will go to benefit the Smile Train charity in the name of the winning team. Interested people can register via the website.
