While browsing the Primal Quest forums this afternoon, I picked up on a few good articles.

It looks like Ian Adamson, perhaps the best adventure racer we have seen, has decided to retire. This article, says he recently announced his retirement but that’s about it. There’s nothing more about his plans or nothing on his personal website or the Team Nike website. I briefly met Ian at Primal Quest a few years ago, seemed like a pretty nice guy. I’m sure he’ll find something to keep him busy post adventure racing; best of luck!

On to Primal Quest, it looks like it’s definitely not going to happen in 2007. Martin Dugard, a long time adventure race author and participant, said the 2007 race was cancelled in late November. In the post, he also gives an interesting view on adventure racing and how it has changed. According to this “ad” (I took a screen shot since the file has been updated and no longer contains the PQ reference) on a sports and travel website, the 2008 Primal Quest location is also up in the air. If you pony up some cash Primal Quest just might head to your neighborhood.
