Intrepid takes 17th at Primal Quest.



Extreme-Adventure-Sports.com is about my passion for adventure sports, adrenaline, adventure gear (my favorite!), nutrition and fitness.
You'll find pictures of myself and teammates in extreme adventure races, most notably Primal Quest.

There is a lot of free information here to help take you to the top of your sport whether you compete or just "adventure" for fun. Or just enjoy the stories and tips that will hopefully inspire you to your own adventure.

GEAR, NUTRITION AND TRAINING

When I entered the adventure sports world, there was a lot of information on advenutre sports, but no

hard-core fitness plans,

gear guides or

nutrition plans

on how to get to the top.


I was blessed to race with a professional adventure racer and world-class tri-athlete. For a year, I questioned him every day.

How fast do you ride your mountain bike?

How many hours do you train for an expedition race?

How do you rappel?

Ascend?

White water raft?

Practice mountaineering?

What do you eat?


The responses were awesome and honest. Extreme-Adventure-Sports.com is about sharing the nutrition advice, skills training, fitness plans (this is not for wimps!), gear tips and of course great race stories I learned about.

Here you can also learn to mountain bike, kayak, climb mountains, rock climb and do orienteering.





WHY ADVENTURE SPORTS?

Why? I get asked that question all the time. I ask myself the same question.

In fact I can't think of a race where I did not ask-why?

Though I can't say they are sane reasons...the following is a list of why!

The Adrenaline

Push my body to the limits

Because I can

Competition

Embellish stories

Passion for the Outdoors and Adventure


The dramatic opening of Primal Quest.





EXTREME ADVENTURES

It's 450 ft straight down......

I step backwards. The river flows below. My adrenaline races...I am free.

Then my hand grasps for the rope. It is taunt and I rappel down the rock cliff. It is day 3 of Primal Quest, the toughest adventure race on earth. Now this is adventure!

After 72 hours of racing, I've had...

one hour of sleep

infected feet

trekked 50 miles with 30 pounds of gear

kayaked 45 miles

biked 65 miles

done canyoneering for 20 miles

...and we have 250 miles to go!

Find the rest of my story and more adventure sports stories and extreme adventures by going to adventure stories on your left nav bar.

Also see my race report for Primal Quest Montana. It was fantastic. The terrain was incredible with 100,000 foot of elevation gain.



And do not forget to check out the Primal Quest Badlands, our most dramatic and best finish yet.
