Independentmami's thoughts-When we arrived we were told to be there at 11 am. The lines were long. We had to wait for everyone to register before we could get started. It was freezing cold. The race was free. We received a free shirt, and a water with water bottle. Then we were instructed to begin. Everyone received clues on their phones. You had to go the stores around the Woodlands's Town Center. Our journey took us back and forth from one point to the other point for over 12 laps. We received the place. Then we received the question, and clue to answer. The answers were there, you had to guess them right. As you answered them right, you received points. Once you were done, the winner was chosen by the most points. It was a very fun race. It was very hard running from place to place. People got different questions. I even had to get my arm waxed. We also played panty toss. In the end, a young couple expecting a baby were announced as the winners. Second and third place received gift certificates to use at Thomas Markle. This was the first year but they are planning on doing it again. So ladies, be on the lookout for the next race. See you at next Amazing Ring Race.
