Global Geography Game

As writers of the international running scene, we have to travel to and report on the most unexpected places. This is actually one of the most rewarding parts of the job - we learn about cultures and cities that, before our arrival, we didn't know about, couldn't spell, and for sure couldn't pick out on a map. Running is the perfect way of increasing our awareness of our bodies, our surroundings, and ourselves. It makes us more conscious of the organization of the world.

But if you've only got ten minutes to work on your international awareness, try playing the Global Geography Game. Cheers to Tanya for sending this our way - it's quite addicting, and a great way to put off going about a day's work. For all you other procrastinators out there, give this one a shot!
