Right now 9413 participants on 1655 teams are running the Amazing Bible Race!
Run Your Own Race!
If you are new to the Amazing Bible Race or if you missed out on or fell behind in one of our Official Races, we have great news: Now you can run your own race. No longer do you have to wait for us to set a date or to tell you what books to read when. You can decide when to start, which legs to run, and which teams to compete against.
Buy Leg 1 Materials Online
Take your youth on a scavenger hunt through the Bible and read it in its entirety over six 12-week legs. It all starts with the Law (Genesis–Deuteronomy), where racers will learn about the Patriarchs, Moses, and a bunch of ritual laws and census figures that they probably haven't studied in Sunday school.
