The episode begins with Wubbzy and everybody else of Wuzzleburg watching the Wuzzolympic Games, the biggest sporting event in Wuzzleburg. The games start with the history video of the Wuzzolymic games, from the pre-historic times, to the ancient roman times, to the medieval times and ends with the history of Michelle Kwanzleberry's record breaking life in every event as a Wuzzolympian. Michelle Kwanzleberry arrives in front of the ceremonial kooky candle, and informs the crowd with the 3 most important things in sports: Prepare, practice and have fun.

The games begin with Hop-o-Roo Hoops, then comes the Silly Swim, and last comes the Spintastic Gymnastics. the event ends with Michelle Kwanzleberry giving the winners medals, and announces the final event of the Wuzzolympic Games: The Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash.
Later that night when everybody leaves the colosseum, Wubbzy, Widget, Walden & Daizy talk about what the Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash is like. Daizy decides if she wants to win the Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash, she'll do the 3 most important things in sports Michelle Kwanzleberry told everybody to do. After Daizy left, Wubbzy, Widget & Walden assume they're going to win the Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash, and then left too.
The next day, Michelle Kwanzleberry arrives at Widget's Workshop, and asks Widget if she's preparing and practicing for the Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash, but Widget suggest that she'll win easily with her invention: The Jiffy Jogger 3000. Michelle Kwanzleberry arrives at Walden's House, and asks Walden if he's preparing and practicing for the Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash, but Walden suggest that he'll win easily just buy riding the wind currents. Michelle Kwanzleberry meets Wubbzy, and asks him if he's preparing and practicing for the Wuzzleburrg Whacky Dash, but Wubbzy suggests that he'll win easily with a spring that gives him more bounce than before. Finally, Michelle Kwanzleberry meets Daizy, and asks her if she's preparing & practicing for the Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash. Daizy says she took Michelle Kwanzleberry's advice: preparing by studying the map of the Whacky Dash, and practicing her running & her skipping. Daizy says whether she wins or loses, she's gotta have fun.
The Wuzzolympic Games Events continues with the Whacky Dash. Michelle Kwanzleberry gives the racers the explanation of the race. Michelle Kwanzleberry starts the race, and the racers began racing. Wubbzy thought he's in the lead, but Widget passes by to take the lead. Widget sees the Great Wall of Wuzzle and tries to slow down, but the button she pressed only made the Jiffy Jogger go faster, then it flung her to the bushes. Widget then chases after her runaway Jiffy Jogger, and Wubbzy bounces over the Great Wall of Wuzzle followed by Walden flying over the wall. Daizy checks the map, and finds the stairs that go up and down the Great Wall of Wuzzle. Walden passes by Wubbzy to take the lead and arrives at the Soupy Swap, but the wind blows Walden uncontrollably and stops. Leading Walden to fall into the Soupy Swap. Wubbzy retakes the lead and finds the Bendy Bridge over Goofy Gulch, but just as he tries to bounce over the gulch, he falls and lands on the back of a Pizza-eating Bobo Bird, in which takes Wubbzy to an opposite direction. Daizy arrives to take a fun slide on the Bendy Bridge and takes the lead.
The Pizza-eating Bobo Bird lands on its nest, and slides Wubbzy inside its nest by using its neck. Wubbzy told the Bobo Bird family that he can't stay for dinner, and leaves the nest to return to the race.
Back at the colosseum, the crowd is thrilled and excited to see the winner of the Wuzzleburg Whacky Dash. The winner who entered the colosseum is revealed to be Daizy, who crossed the finish line. Afterwards, Wubbzy, Widget & Walden arrived at the colosseum to be surprised that Daizy won the race, because she followed Michelle Kwanzleberry's 3 most important things in sports.
