Simply Amazing Race 2

August 16th, 2005

Just like Extra Challenge. Just like the real Amazing Race but on a minor scale. Me and my team were running like crazy in the UP Diliman grounds as we were getting from one point to another, from one marshal to another and from one clue to another as we were participating in the Smart Mountaineering Club’s Simply Amazing Race 2 (second such activity with the first done for the first batch of applicants, we were second batch). It was so tiring but the thrill, excitement as well as exhilaration in competing with other teams and clinching the second place was more than enough considering that I had only a few hours sleep.

Well, more such activities should be organized. It was just fun, fun and fun.

My team, Team Tapang (RED, really a homage to our muse, Lea Tapang :-)) reporting to Marshal Nick (A). We just found a few minutes before the hidden clue near the shrubs after orienting ourselves 100 meters and 170 degrees from one specific point.

Jeremy, though sick, still managed to participate and run followed behind by Rexel.

Reading the clue given by Jerry after doing the ropemanship challenge.

Consulting the map to the Oval for our next clue.

The second to the last challenge: packing a backpack.

Blue team, the victors, clinching the first place holding their malong prize. But on my opinion, our prize was better :-)
