Wow . . . I thought my HRAdventure run to Sams Club before the races we organize put a hurtin' on my Subaru suspension . . . check out this
article on some of the logistics behind transition area hydration at PrimalQuest. That's a lot of product!
The articles author, Mike Bitton, has a blog
over here. He's one of the guys with the fun job of writing about
PrimalQuest this year, and it should be interesting to follow him for the next few weeks.
I wonder if PQ realized how hot it would be in Moab in the summer? Team HRAdventure is racing the
"smaller" expedition race out in Moab in October 5-8 this year, we had the good sense to wait until the Fall for things to cool off!
I can already feel what my next post will be . . . provided I have time to write it . . . I should highlight the HRAdventure connections to PQ this year. There's lots of people, both racers and race staff, who have ties to HRAdventure (Scott Pleban, Blain Reeves, the Sutliff Hummerians, GOALS ARA, etc). Many people ask if I'd like to do PQ next go 'round and, while I'm certainly interested, I'm more interested in going to New Zealand for the
Southern Traverse. In my mind, the Southern Traverse is the shining beacon on the hill of adventure racing. Plus, I'd love to return to New Zealand and maybe -- just maybe -- lose my return ticket home. They need computer programmers down there, right?
