This year saw the third annual Amazing Race in Joburg take place. More than 80 teams took part in the event in 2008.
The event is basically a clue hunt to raise money for charity. This year the event supported The Princess Alice adoption home and a Primary School called Paradise Bend in Lanseria.
I think this is a great initiative that was started by the same gentlemen who created the hugely successful Facebook group for the International Monopoly board voting for Cape Town.
The Times were there in full force and not only covered the event but participated in it too.

Hi Nic
Thanks for the post. We had an amazing time last weekend. We will definitely have more and I urge guys to join the Facebook group called Amazing Race Continues which will feature event news, photos and details of up and coming races. The next one is planned for 6 September which gives us something to look forward to at the end of Winter…
Cheers
