Welcome Welcome! This is the first event of the world competition! In this event, a group event is the four legged race. Nations choose your teams of three and get ready for the start of the race.

Egypt muttered. He was not well known or liked in the world. Especially with the current events going on in his homeland. He pulled the unfamiliar fabric of his athletic shirt and shorts. It just didn't feel right. Looking around, he wondered if he could find some partners.

Japan sat near the outside of the gruop, knees pulled to his chest as he tried to look rather invisible. Perhaps if he did not call attention to himself, he would not be dragged into the race that involved falling over one's partners and generally looking ridiculous. The competition was supposed to be fun...but what was fun about being uncomfortable? He watched as others milled about, picking teammates and talking or laughing. He could only hope that they had an uneven number of participants.
