Calling all Idiots

Idiotarod = Iditarod (aka "dog-sledding"), except replace the dogs with people and replace the sled with a shopping cart. Then run across town instead of the snowy tundra. That about does it.

If you're into reading, you can look here:

You need to form teams of 5 people + 1 shopping cart.
A costume theme and decorations for your team are more fun, but not mandatory.
