About the Ann Arbor Scavenger Hunt Run/Walk
This one starts outside Fleet Feet's downtown store and sends groups out through the neighborhood to solve clues and stop into local businesses along the way. It is less a timed race than a moving puzzle through the city streets, with shops like a chocolate maker, a comic book store, and a farm-stand grocer serving as checkpoints.
The groups leave from the corner store, so parking somewhere nearby downtown is the practical move. It is open to all ages and paces, and coming solo is common since the group format means you meet people at the start anyway.
