On her new blog hosted at Typepad, Heidi is writing about attending the Big Urban Game in Minneapolis. What is it?

A citywide game that turns the Twin Cities into a 108-square mile giant game board. Three teams race three giant (26 feet high) inflatable game pieces ó Red, Yellow and Blue ó from three different starting points along three different routes between checkpoints in Minneapolis and St. Paul to a shared destination at the west end of the Lake Street/Marshall Street bridge, spanning the Mississippi.
