Posted on 08/13/09 7:12 PM| by Kraig
The pre-race briefing is complete, and the teams have received their maps and passports. They are now pouring over both and plotting their course through the Badlands and Black HIlls of South Dakota. Their navigational skills will be put to the test over the next ten days as they bike, hike, and paddle their way through the race.
During the briefing, the teams learned that there would be plenty of orientteering during Primal Quest Badlands presented by SPOT. In fact, they’ll be navigating on foot, mountain bike, and on the water, and if that wasn’t enough, they’ll have an orienteering course inside of a massive cave.
Later this evening the leaderboard and tracking system powered by SPOT will go live for fans following the race at home. The entire course will be laid out online and when the race begins tomorrow morning at 5:30 AM Mountain time, you’ll be able to track all the teams as they begin their 600 mile journey.
