News story
Tuesday 31 Mar 2009
A sea of blue shirts washed through Auckland on Saturday the 21st of March as over 300 teams attempted to run, search and solve their way through 18 chase points across the city during the inaugural ANZ City Chase.
Race participants were only allowed to use public transport (including Heart of the City's very own Tikki Tikkis) or their feet to get around the city. Over 100 teams opted to use the Tikki Tikki's to get around the CBD.
The winner's blitzed the course that stretched from the CBD out to Okahu Bay and across to Devonport in 2 hours and 9 minutes and their win qualified them for the City Chase World Championships which will be held in an undisclosed location later this year.The City of Sails turned on a beautiful late summers day as the participants were challenged to a variety of tasks among some of Auckland's most prominent landmarks and sites.
