Pram racing is a competitive, fun packed activity for teams of two, consisting of a pusher and a rider. Appropriate costume should be worn. And the common theme for course design, seems to be, to pass as many watering holes (pubs) as possible.

Popularity
Pram racing is popular in all areas of Britain, from sleepy English villages, to the most densely populated inner city areas. Pram racing is as popular with competitors as with spectators.

Age
Normally an activity contested by adults.

Ability
To dress and run in a ridiculous costume, and yet retain some thread of dignity, (this feet is rarely achieved).

Description
Pram Races are normally contested on an annual basis, and organised as a charity event. Teams dress in appropriate or inappropriate costume, and race around a course that includes as many local pubs as possible, normally stopping at each one on route. Prizes are awarded for the most original and appropriate pram and team costumes. Grown men in nappy's is a frightening and favorite theme. Top prize is reserved for the first team to locate and cross the finish line.

Potential
Large sums of money are raised by this activity for local good causes, whilst both competitors and spectators have an enjoyable time.
