Stockholm gets grown-up waterslide, obstacle race

Paul Heymont 7/28/172:00 PM

Why should kids have all the fun? That's what the organizers of Stockholm's Waterslide Obstacle Rush say, and they've aimed their 5-km course at 18-35 year olds.

Opening with a race tomorrow, July 29, the course includes inflatable hills and humps, tunnels, balls and at the very end, a 140-metre inflated waterslide. 600 have signed up for the first run.

While the emphasis is on 18-35 year-olds, the course is open to others, and the organizers say they have been successful in atrracting families with kids as well.
