TEAM Intrepid: Adventure Racing Team

This is my team! After much time and teammate searching, we have put together a dynamic team.

Markley a guidance counselor, specifically put together our adventure racing team based on our personalities. You can't beat that!

Adventure racing is not about the most fit (though you must be exceptionally fit), but about attitude, determination and teamwork.

This is critical in racing. We first tested our adventure racing "team" as we gathered in March for a 3 day training and certification. We walked away knowing we were very strong, got along well, and with a definite plan. We were able to sit down for over 3 hours and discuss our strategy. Amazingly we agreed on most everything. The things we weren't 100% sure on, we worked out easily. This type of communication is going to be key as we race.

Team Intrepid is a capable experienced adventure racing team. Our goal is to win Primal Quest 2008 and continue to defend our title in the future.

Our adventure racing team lives in various parts of the country (Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Virginia and Illinois).

Kimberly Dunkin



Kim is 38 and married to Phil. They have one son.


She is a part time karate teacher and stay at home mom. She loves competition more than anything and that is why she enjoys being on an adventure racing team.


In fact, she doesn't normally play video games, but was playing the nintendo ds. When asked why?, she realized it was because it keeps up with the records and she is trying to take the #1 spot. If it didn't keep score, she wouldn't play.


Just like growing up you don't play catch. That is boring. It was always burn out.

Scott says,

Adventure racing brings together so many things in life that I find interesting and important. I am passionate about competing, challenging my limits, working with a team, traveling, and enjoying the outdoors.

AR brings together all those components, requires you to uses numerous skills, all while letting you enjoy some of the most beautiful terrain that you would otherwise not likely experience.

One of his strongest personal traits is a Do not quit attitude. He has been hit by a car in a race while on the bike. He removed the front brake so the bike would roll... finished the race... then went to the hospital to get patched up.
