The Wall Street Journal published a great article on Primal Quest Montana today which focuses on Team 28: Active Racing, captained by Kathy Roche-Wallace, but is an excellent overview of the race as a whole, but told from a very personal perspective. An excerpt from the article follows:

Four days and 263 miles into a backcountry race and Kathy Roche-Wallace isn’t even halfway to the finish. She’s limping on a big toe that is infected and swollen. She has a purple bruise the size of a grapefruit on her left thigh from a spill down a mountainside. Her sweat smells of vinegar and ammonia, a sign her fuel-starved body has started burning muscle.
