Kudos to every one of our 403 amazing participants who came out to sunny San Diego! The day was filled with mustaches and flight attendants galore. The weather and people were perfect!

Everyone and anyone had a blast with the various challenges to complete! We even had strangers stop by to inquire about all the costumed participants who were running about the streets of San Diego! We had participants racing to ride tandem bikes at Bicycle Discovery, boxing like champions at American Boxing Muay Thai MMA Academy, and other participants storming their way to Moondoggies to answer trivia!

Thank you goes out to all of our fantastic racers of all ages. Coming in first place was Slytherin with a time of 1:22. Second place goes to Pardon Our Dust with a time of 1:31 followed by More Cow Bell with a lightning fast time of 1:34.

Our Top Family Team was Me Mini Me with a stellar finish time of 1:50. That's a remarkably fast time!

There were many costumes that attracted many WOWs. We had the San Diego Newsteam, which were a sight to see. Then there was The Most Interesting Racers in the World who garnered massive applause heard from miles around. However, Toon Town Allstars clinched the Best Costume win Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Jessica Rabbit costumes.

Thanks to all our wonderful volunteers who made this event possible! The GUR crew had a blast in sunny San Diego and we hope to see everyone next year!
