Now that the WA Goes Big 2017 event TB race is over, it’s time for a new goal, so, show us your shoes! That’s right, post a photo of the TB with your shoes. These three ‘racing’ TBs are now racing against each other to get as many photos with shoes that they can…

For the record, only Sam’s Shoe (TB7M43P) made it to the finish line, clocking up 15,639km in Australian soil during the 5 month race. Ben’s Shoe (TB7M4NC) did 8,619km and Lachy’s Shoe (TB7M43Q) did 4,510km.

This TB was part of a race which you can view at http://www.tb-run.com/show-race.php?run=WAGB2017.

Racing Rules:

1. The purpose of the “Race to WA Goes Big Event” is to HAVE FUN and to promote geocaching! A prize will be awarded to the owner of the TB that has travelled the furthest within the timeframe below. The winning TB must be physically present at the West Oz Goes Big Event no later than 4pm 9th September 2017.

2. The race begins 1.00am 13th April 2017 and ends at 4pm 9th September 2017.

3. Participants must place their TB into ANY geocache or ANY Event in Australia on, or after,  13th April, 2017 (Dönerstag Day)

4. Owners may enter up to, but no more than 3 TBs per caching team.

5. The TB is the property of the owner. The owner takes responsibility for securely attaching the TB tag to the traveller.

6. When activating your TB, please enter the initials WAGB17 (for West Oz Goes Big 2017) before the TB’s name. This allows TBs to be alphabetized in the watch list. (Example: If your TB’s name is “Mini Me” then enter it as “WAGB17 Mini Me”)

7. Dipping (or visiting) is permitted.

8. Owners are NOT to contact others in order to influence or promote the movement of their racer(s).

9. Owners are NOT permitted to move their own racer(s). However; the owner may collect their TB and bring it to WA Goes Big Event but the km’s from where the TB was collected do not count.

10. Owners are encouraged to place competitors’ TBs on their “watch list.”

11. In the event that a TB ends up missing, the owner must make an attempt to contact the cache owner and verify the TB’s status. If the TB is truly missing, you may re-enter the race using your copy tag. You are allowed to release a copy tag only once during the course of the event. The total km’s travelled by the original TB will count; however, the distance between the last cache visited by the original and the first cache visited by the copy will not.

12.The Long Jump Rule - If any TB leaves Australian shores, it may not return with the same caching team it left with.

13. In the event of any disputes, the West Oz Geocaching Committee decision will be final.
