Turtle Hurdles and Rabbit Habits

Welcome to the 20-year reunion of Habitat High. Still smarting from their last race, Hare has challenged Tortoise once again, but has Hare learned his lesson or are his habits too ingrained? Will Tortoise be able to compete in an even longer race? Audience members will help Tortoise and Hare train for their marathon and for healthier lives. Made possible in part by Highmark Blue Shield.
