Clubs Invited To Join The PQSS!

Kraig Becker / 15.07.2008

The Primal Quest Sprint Series is proud to offer a 20% discount to all entrants who belong to a local outdoor athletic club. Members of cycling, mountain biking, triathalon, orienteering, or any other outdoor clubs are eligible for the discount by providing a copy of their membership card upon submission of their entry. Teams that sign up on-line at www.primalquestsprintseries.com will use their club discount code.


The PQSS is a series of shorter, faster adventure races designed by the same team behind the Primal Quest expedition length race. Teams of two compete in the traditional adventure racing disciplines of mountain biking, trail running, and paddling, with a few surprise events thrown in as well.

The Sprint Series launched in May with the first ever race taking place in Chesterfield, VA. There are two more races scheduled for 2008, one in Pittsburgh, PA on September 6th and another in Charlotte, NC on October 4th. In 2009, the Series will expand with more races tentatively scheduled as follows:

Miami - mid February

New Orleans - late March

Nashville - early May

Detroit - mid June

New York - late July

Pennsylvania - early September

Richmond - mid October

Atlanta - mid November

Top teams will earn points based on how they finish in the Sprint Series races, and at the end of the season, the team with the most points will be crowned the PQSS Champion. The winner of the Primal Quest Sprint Series will earn themselves an automatic entry into the 2010 Primal Quest Expedition Race.
