We've been busy making extensive changes to our publishing platform that will let us bring together more adventure racing news from more sources than ever before. We're very excited about it and figured what better time than the Friday before a long holiday weekend, when noone's paying attention, to roll out a new site :-)

As you click your way around you'll notice that most of our content is now coming from blogs.

We've got team blogs, news blogs...blogs focused on specific races...you get the idea.

Right now we've got about 10 blogs focusing on such notable teams as DART-nuun and Salomon/Crested Butte along with race blogs for Terra Traverse and Primal Quest to name a few.

We're also now using blogs to publish all the adventure racing news that gets sent to us via email instead of publishing it in our database. In the coming weeks we'll be inviting trusted 3rd parties to post directly to this blog in particular. That means the time between content submission and content publishing should drop to...ZERO :-)

You'll also noticed we've removed the Calendar (and are working on removing all the remaining links to it). We haven't given up on providing you a great race calendar...we're working on a bigger, better way to do it. More on that soon.

If you're interested in setting up a dedicated blog for your team or business send an email to yak@checkpointzero.com and convince me. You'll have to demonstrate that you can write, that you're going to post AT LEAST weekly and that there are people out there that are gonna want to read what you have to say :-)

I hope you enjoy the new site!

Cheers,
Yak
