This past Friday, Andy Thompson of the Richmond Times Dispatch wrote a great article on the first Primal Quest Sprint Series event held at Pocahontas State Park, not far from Richmond, VA last weekend. An excerpt follows:

All I could think about, waist deep in a swamp in Pocahontas State Park, was the ominous prerace briefing from race director Joe Moerschbaecher: “We saw a lot of snakes out there, so be careful.”

That and a scene from the classic’80’s movie “Stand By Me” that takes place in a mucky marsh similar to the one I was in and ends with this realization: “Leeches!”
