- A pair of wooden clogs for each racer
HOW TO PLAY
1
Line up racers at a marked starting point, each wearing a pair of traditional wooden clogs.
2
On the starting signal, racers run or briskly walk toward a finish line a set distance away.
3
Runners must keep both clogs on their feet for the entire race; a lost clog must be put back on before continuing.
4
The uneven weight and stiffness of the clogs make balance and short strides more effective than a normal running stride.
5
The first racer to cross the finish line with both clogs still on wins the race.
