The nighttime is the right time for many things, but running a race is not generally among them -- until now.

As competitive as racers may get, it’s meant to be fun for people of all fitness levels. Teams can travel by foot or public transportation; whichever gets ‘em to the next destination faster. Challenges at each destination could be mental or physical, and there’s even an award for best costume.

The trek takes off from Local Breeze. Teams race from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. with a post-party to follow. A portion of the money benefits the Arizona Humane Society.

Sat., May 15, 6:30-10:30 p.m., 2010
