Workers took part in a quirky annual office chair race in Kyotanabe, Japan, on March 29, competing on wheeled office chairs along a closed circuit.

The event, founded in 2010, was inspired by creator Tsuyoshi Tahara’s childhood memory of being scolded by a teacher for playing with an office chair, he told CNN.

Footage from the ISU-1 Grand Prix shows teams of three racing to complete as many laps as possible around a circuit within two hours.

The winning team, “The Team Shouting Office Chairs in the Heart of Kyotanabe,” was made up of students from Kyushu University in Fukuoka Prefecture, according to event organizers.

Prizes vary by region, but the standard reward is 90 kilograms (nearly 200 pounds) of rice.
