Whispers Through the City: The Impact Race
New York City is about to become part of the story.
Whispers Through the City: The Impact Race is an immersive, story-driven experience that takes teams across NYC through creative challenges, reflections, iconic locations, bookstores, hidden gems, and unforgettable moments inspired by storytelling, connection, and community.
This is not about winning.
It’s about:
the conversations you didn’t expect to have
the moments that catch your team off guard
the stories you carry into the city
and the ones you leave carrying afterward
