XRACE Melbourne
Race Information
XRACE is a mystery adventure race where a parent and child aged 6-14 team up and race together to locate and complete 10 mystery challenges, racing against the clock and all the other family teams. A team is made up of two people -- an adult (dad or mum or a trusted relative or family friend) and a child aged between 6 and 14 years of age.
The challenges range from physical (like tug-of-war) to mental (like the memory challenge) to knowledge based (like the music challenge). Your team must complete a challenge before moving on to the next challenge and the challenges change from year to year and course to course. No XRACE is ever the same.
