The training sessions conclude with The Marshmallow Challenge: The
challenge is to build the tallest freestanding structure in 18 minutes with
one yard of string, one yard of masking tape, and 20 sticks of spaghetti
within 18 minutes. The structure must hold the marshmallow on top and
be standing on its own at the end of 18 minutes.
