The turtle race starts in four days time from Costa Rica to the feeding grounds around the Galapagos Islands. You can pick a turtle, which are all tracked by satellite, and follow its progress. The idea of the race is to draw attention to the plight of the Leatherback Turtles which are in a race against time, to head off extinction.
