GUR Charity

Great Urban Race is proud to be partnering with Jonathan's Place for the second time in 2010.  Jonathan’s Place has been caring from the abused, abandoned and neglected children of North Texas for 15 years. We provide this care through our emergency shelter and through our Foster & Adoptive Family Program. Each year, hundreds of children are given the attention they need, the love they deserve and the chance to be children.  Visit www.jpkids.org for more information.

2009 Participants Said

"Great event. We had a lot of fun partaking in the race and it also allowed us to see parts of Dallas that we don't usually have the opportunity to see."

 

"What an amazing experience!!! The Great Urban Race exceeded all our expectations. It was a fantastic way to learn a little more about the city we live in and an even better way to spend an afternoon with four hundred of your newest friends! Thanks GUR!"

 

"The race was so well put together - can't think of anything that was missing. We really liked that there was a charity portion to event! Even the spectators ("real" people) were getting involved - pointing out places we needed to get to. It was soooo much fun!"

We’ll be coming to Dallas-Fort Worth for the third time in 2010! Teams will find checkpoints, complete challenges and navigate the streets of Fort Worth.
