The PQ team is very pleased to be an integral part of the adventure racing community and a leader in the continuation of expedition-level racing!

In this feature we take some time to learn about those racing in PQ 2008.

In addition to his numerous adventure sport championships, the captain of this team placed first in Eco-Challenge Morocco, Borneo, and New Zealand. He also had wins at the Gorge Games Adventure Race, Raid the North Extreme Adventure Race, British Virgin Island Expedition, National 24-hour Adventure Race, and the Xstream Solo Adventure Race Series. Oh yeah, and his teams are four time Primal Quest winners too!
