Earn Primal Quest certs at the 4 or 6 day Odyssey AR Academy

20.01.2008

The team at Odyssey Adventure Racing have 5 reasons your Primal Quest team should certify at the OAR Academy.

Reason #1: You've got the skills, but does your team have the whole package?

Absolutely integral elements in any team's success: team/support crew roles & dynamics, savvy navigation, strategy, efficiency vs. strength, nutrition/supplementation, sufficient training/acclimation and planning, foot/body care, properly working gear/equipment, addressing avoidable problems

Reason #2: You want to finish, so how can your team avoid a DNF?

An informal survey of adventure racers across the country confirmed that most DNFs are avoidable. Every one of those contributing factors are covered at the OARA.

Reason #3: Time: Your team simply doesn't have the time to make the April 15th deadline for PQ certifications.

Registered OARA participants automatically receive an extended deadline from PQ, with official approval for submission of certs in late May. You must register by April 15th, midnight EST.

Reason #4: You want your team to function like clockwork, yet be flexible enough to adapt and evolve as the course throws 3D problems your way.

An intensive week of learning and preparing together followed by competing in the Wild, Wonderful 24hr AR will get you all on the same page.
