reality check
This is stolen from the PQ website. In case I wasn't scared already.
"Primal Quest is not only the last of the great expedition-length adventure races, it is generally considered to be the most difficult endurance event in the world. Beginning on June 25th and lasting up to ten days, ninety co-ed teams of endurance athletes will battle raw, dramatic landscapes unlike anywhere else in the world - from high-altitude passes to rugged terrain stripped bare by the powerful forces of nature.
Foregoing sleep, they will navigate through 500 miles of desolate landscapes via trekking, mountaineering, horseback riding, canyoneering, mountain biking, whitewater swimming, paddling and day and night navigation. Daytime temperatures of over 100 degrees will test the athletes, as will the nearly six miles of climbing and descending fixed ropes on vertiginous cliffs. Primal Quest is - simply - a monument to fitness, teamwork and backcountry skills, and currently represents the outer limits of human endurance."
