How does this sound for fun on the run? You start the race with great tunes and fun commentary( and an awesome car give-away), then you hit the first vibe point after about a kay, complete with music, dancers, costumes and commentator … followed by another one about a kay later … then another within the next kay … and so it goes on, all through the race!
