Adventure Racing

Escape and Evasion

Primal Quest has teamed up with Blackwater Extreme Racing to put on a 24-hour race that, well, sounds like an ass-kicker.  The Blackwater Escape and Evasion Race is scheduled to take place November 7th- 8th in Moyock, North Carolina.

"Blackwater E&E is unlike any other adventure race on the planet. This 24-hour race will test teams of two against one another as they run, mountain bike, paddle, swim, and climb their way across a challenging course designed to test them at every turn. Along the way, they'll face the Blackwater obstacle course, the infamous SEAL team "log PT", an optional orienteering course, and a few other surprises that could only come from Blackwater and the team behind Primal Quest, the "World's Most Challenging Human Endurance Competition"."

This would obviously be a good race for triathletes and other endurance athletes, but the organizers also recommend it to military personnel, police officers, firefighters, or anyone else looking to add a little adventure and challenge to their life.

  1. With a lack of current goals, I have slacking off a little lately. Anyone interested in a team?

  2. This is by far too cool.... I just signed up for my first adventure race, so I'm certainly not hard core enough for this, but this an awesome twist to the USARA type events. Any connection to Blackwater, Inc, you know the merc. types, etc.?
