Choose Your Own Nonsense: Operation Footloose & Fancy Free
In the spirit of the ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ books that we all loved as children, Operation Footloose and Fancy Free will be designed to allow for the unknown. This race will have multiple distances available to complete. You won’t know what distance you’re running until you’re done.
Along the course, there will be choices for you to make. Choose one direction and examine the remains of a UFO crash. Choose the other and end up captured by aliens. Your choices on the course will determine how far you run. Operation Footloose and Fancy Free is meant to drop you into an unknown planet full of perils and delights at every turn. Will you get abducted in the woods? Quite possibly. Will you have a good story to tell? Most definitely.
The race will start and end at Red Gate Woods in the Palos Trails. Every runner will have to choose their code name before starting.
