Though still months away, Primal Quest 2008 is in full swing and we are looking forward to the challenge as much as you and your teams.

As Directors of Competitor Relations, we are the bridge between the race and team captains. To that end, we are happy to announce the release of the first official Competitor Newsletter for Primal Quest 2008!

As with all important information regarding teams you can access the Newsletter from the Team Resources page.

Why wait for the race to start styling in your PQ clothing? The Primal Quest online store is open!

Just added to the store are embroidered race shirts by RailRiders. These are clothes that go places and are made to last.

The PQ store is also the place to find stickers and tattoos, DVDs from Primal Quest Utah, and Don Mann’s Complete Guide to Adventure Racing.

Coming soon… All the PQ logo swag you could possibly desire: Hats from Headsweats, Water bottles from Camelbak, and Buffs from, well, from Buff! And there is more great gear to follow. And you thought your holiday shopping would be difficult this year!

The PQ Team Page is the place to be! Comments are open so leave a note at the bottom of the page if you are looking for someone to fill out your team. Or, if you are an individual who wants to race, you may find a team to compete with in the “World’s Most Challenging Human Endurance Competition.”

Our website attracts enthusiastic, adventurous people from around the world so the Team Page could also be a great place to recruit a support crew!

2008 marks the 5th Edition of Primal Quest. Since its inception, the “World’s Most Challenging Human Endurance Competition” has taken racers to some of the most beautiful and rugged locations in the continental United States.

The inaugural race in Telluride, CO (2002) was followed by Lake Tahoe, CA (2003) and the San Juan Islands of Washington State (2004). Always looking to provide competitors with a dramatic change of scenery from race to race, the 4th edition of PQ pitted teams against each other and the hostile summer desert environs of Moab, UT (2006).

With ten years of continual race production experience (including the Beast of the East, Expedition BVI, Mega Dose, Endorphin FIX, the USARA Nationals, and of course PQ Utah), Don Mann and his Primal Quest team are uniquely suited to orchestrate another stellar event in 2008.

Where will teams race next summer? Stay tuned to this site as the location of the 5th Edition of Primal Quest is soon to be announced.
