Dart-Nuun does it again

May 21st, 2008

In my quest to hopefully get a few endurance races in, I worked hard to get the Dart-Nuun endurance adventure racing team under the Michelin sponsorship.  Ever since I helped to broker this deal, they certainly have not let us down.  The team has racked up another win in the preparation for the Primal Quest [...]

The Transrockies Run…goodness gracious.  5 stages, 5 days, 125 miles, with racing altitudes reaching over 12,000 feet in some of Colorado’s most beautiful mountains.  Today is day 5 and I have been following the race reports for all 4 days so far.  Quite the race I must say.  Give me a couple years of training [...]

Dart-Nuun Adventure Racing

September 10th, 2007

I just got this email from one of my sponsored athletes/team.  It is about the Dart-Nuun Adventure Racing Team.  It was a race report from their recent race down in Australia.  Check out the version posted on their site.  Pretty incredible stuff.  They got 33 flats between 4 people in 400k of racing through 6 [...]
