According to a post from the Orlando Police, the competition was intense and the victory was a product of the department’s commitment to excellence. Details on the competing teams and the event's intricacies have not been disclosed.

Whether or not these athletic ventures will become a staple in law enforcement's non-work functions remains to be seen. But for now, the OPD can bask in the satisfaction of a race well run and the bonus of bringing home a couple of shiny additions to their trophy case.
