CitySolve Urban Race Austin 2013 was amazing!  Thanks for coming out, and Hook em’ Horns!

Don’t forget to like  CitySolve’s  Facebook. Stay updated on all CitySolve’s discounts, contests, race photos and other amazing tidbits in our CitySolve Monthly Newsletter!

This year’s first place team was Austin’s The Bourgeoise!!!  The Bourgeoise brought home the CitySolve gold! Better watch out for them next year, they’ll be back to hold their title!

We really enjoyed working with Austin Pets Alive this year!  Austin Pets Alive’s mission is focused on helping the healthy and treatable pets at risk of being killed in a shelter.  They rescue dogs and cats who are at the greatest risk, providing them care within our shelter or with one of our hundreds of foster families, and adopting them out. Whether they are a 3-day old unweaned kitten; a 1 year old puppy with ring worm; or a 14 year old cat with FELV, they have a program and staff to help find them a place to call home. With a focused mission to focus solely on the pets who have been passed over by other groups and adoption programs, their impact is vast.

If you want to join, volunteer, donate, or contribute in any way to their program, please contact them at 512-961-6519 or email info@austinpetsalive.org Find out more info! To volunteer or get more information about Austin Pets Alive LIKE their Facebook page.

Ouch!  2013′s Best Tweet goes to @RJoseph927

We’d also like to thank Lavaca Street Bar for hosting this year’s start & finish.  They are super central to downtown, and super duper awesome.  They offered everyone a great selection of drinks.  Plus they have skee-ball!  Thanks Lavaca!

Drop the beat!  Thanks to Pure Ryde for hosting a fantastic cycling checkpoint!  They are bringing the awesome to cycling culture in Austin.  Be sure to like them on Facebook, and head on over for a session of cycling!  Their single ryde pricing is fantastic, and so are their playlists.

Buffalo Billiards hosted an amazing packet pick-up! They had a great happy hour!  Throw back a cold one and play some games.  They have fantastic Billiards tables available.  Until you get a chance to drop in, leave a review on Yelp. They earned it.

CitySolve Urban Race Houston 2013 was far out!  Thanks for hanging tough CitySolvers, even when the rain came down close to the end.  That storm was so severe Al Roker would have had to put on arm floaties.

This year’s first place team was Houston’s FLIGHT RISK!!! Bing Kao & Judy Jones racers brought home the CitySolve gold! Better watch out for them next year, they’ll be back to hold their title!

We were happy to work with H.E.A.R.T. HOUSTON this year!  H.E.A.R.T.’s mission is to promote structured independence for persons living with developmental disabilities by providing innovative education, training, housing and employment programs.  Their Checkpoint at Randall’s was awesome!  You’d better know your Houston Rockets well now, and your Jack in the Box’s.

We’d also like to thank BlackFinn for hosting this year’s start & finish.

Thanks and congrats to everyone who came out for CitySolve Miami this year.  With out a doubt, Miami has got style! To see all the pictures, videos and fun from the race look no further than CitySolve’s Facebook. Be sure to tag all your friends, you don’t wanna leave anyone out.

Miami’s very first, 1st place team was “Running With Scissors”!!!  They showed the competition who’s boss, and took home some major $$.  Just goes to show that all those times your parents told you not to run with scissors was…well only partially true.  Check out this video to see what they had to say.

Our fantastic charitable partner this year is Empowered Youth! Wow! These guys rock. Thank you for completing the fundraising challenge. If you want to join, volunteer as a tutor or mentor, or contribute in any way to their program, please contact Colleen Adams at (786) 317-4160 or email her at colleen@empoweredyouthusa.org

EMPOWERED YOUTH’S MISSION: To  break the cycle of teens who are or have been in the Juvenile Detention center by empowering them to create a lasting transformation and a positive life for both themselves and their communities.

We’d also like to thank Fado Irish Pub for hosting this year’s Miami’s CitySolve Urban Race. Fado Irish Pub offers a fantastic selection of brews, hearty meals, and a great place to hang out and watch sporting events.  Conveniently located in Mary Brickell Village. Make sure you like Fado on Facebook. Thanks for all the fun and great staff. Fado, you guys are awesome!!

A special thank you goes out to Miami Downton Development Authority (DDA) for helping to make our event great! The Mission of the Miami Downtown Development Authority is to grow, strengthen and promote the economic health and vitality of Downtown Miami. Check out their website for amazing info on downtown events, arts & culture and local businesses: http://www.miamidda.com/ 

Best tweet of the day for our #CitySolve & #Shake Shack tweet contest, went to Carola Voges! Yay! Click on the picture to follow her.

Another special thanks goes out to Shake Shack!  They hosted an awesome checkpoint in Coral Gables. They challenged your taste buds with dense, rich & creamy frozen custard. Yum! Their shakes are made with milk from dairy farmers who do not use artificial growth hormones, but we think the secret ingredient is actually pure magic.  Make sure you check out Shake Shack on Facebook and Twitter to tell them what you think! They have locations in Coral Gables and Miami Beach.

Thank you to Misha’s Cupcakes for those tasty treats along the way! We suggest following Misha’s cupcakes on Facebook so you’ll be reminded to get cupcakes for your special occasion… like that holiday party… or Tuesdays. Click on the picture to see more!!!

Thanks to Baru Urbano for a hosting a fantastic checkpoint in the heart of Brickell Village and at the center of the action.  They showed CitySolvers the true meaning of hospitality and class!  For any occasion, visit Baru Urbano.  Defintely follow them on Facebook to stay hip or peep thier Webpage.

ZICO coconut water provided some of the best swag of all!  Hosting an exciting “barrell of monkeys” checkpoint, they drove the participants to the limit, and then restored their energy with free samples of ZICO!  For a naturally powered day, check out ZICO and give them a try.
