Races are first unlocked after the memory ‘Nightcap’ in DNA Sequence 1. You can locate them on your map by pinpointing a icon. There are six Races available to you throughout the game. Completing just one will unlock this achievement.
The first available race in Florence is called ‘Florentine Sprint’. There is a icon near the Palazzo della Signoria, south-southeast of The Duomo. Locate a man glowing white in the northwest corner of the plaza and press to speak with him. He will challenge you to beat his time in a race. Accept the mission and the timer will start. You will have 1:30 to finish the race. Races are a test of your ability to jump and climb on buildings and rooftops. Follow the yellow crosshairs on your mini-map to your destination. If you finish before the time expires, the achievement will unlock.

For this trophy you must beat a thieves record for a course that he has set out. There are a few in every city and they are signified by a checkered flag on your map. Once you start the challenge continue to run through the checkpoints until the end. You must be quick and know where you are going next. It may take a few tries to learn the course. Once you beat the time you will get the trophy.
