Announcing 79 Teams (with more on the way!)
Posted on 07/30/07 9:30 AM| by Osprey
[cpg_albumrand:10,1]Registration for the 75 announced team slots for Primal Quest 2008 opened thirty days ago on July 1st. Twelve hours later the 75 slots were filled and a waiting list began. Over the past thirty days that list has nearly doubled in size. With the tremendous interest in next year’s race we decided to open registration to an additional 15 teams.
Today we announce the first 79 teams confirmed for the 2008 race. Racers next year will represent at least eight countries including Australia, Canada, Ireland, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, United Kingdom, US. Five of the top ten teams from Primal Quest Utah will once again pick up the gauntlet of “The World’s Most Challenging Human Endurance Competition.”
See below for a list of confirmed teams. Check back often for the posting of additional teams… is one of them yours?
