Adventure Racing In This Economy Print

Like everything else right now, Adventure Racing is also feeling the effects of the sluggish economy.  Big name races like the MIX and Primal Quest who usually sell out have a lot of space open and will likely struggle to make a profit.  Sponsors no longer have money in their budgets to send giveaways and race packet stuffers, and registrations are down.  We are on your side.

It is our strategy to provide events that are central to many cities in the Midwest and have accomodating start times so teams don't have to fork over much needed cash for hotels and extra meals.  Also, I want to assure everyone that our events WILL happen.  We will not cancel events due to low participation.  We're not out to make a killing, we're out to provide a service to a community I myself am a part of.

Unfortunately the giveaways might be somewhat lacking, but rest assured we will deliver a quality event as always.  Keep in mind that we are out to meet a need and are always open to suggestions for adding new events and/or making our events more appealing to the masses.

Thank you for your continued support and we'll see you out there!!
