Talk about tradition, the Shrovetide Pancake Race has been held nearly annually since 1445 AD!
This race is only open to women sixteen years of age, who dress in traditional housewife attire (dress, apron and kerchief), toss a pancake in a pan and run from the market to the church carrying the pan. The winner is rewarded with a kiss. Always on Shrove Tuesday, the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent, in Olney, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom.
A cross-pond race is also run in Liberal, Kansas. The two towns compete for the fastest time. The Liberal event began in 1950.
