Registration for Primal Quest Badlands Presented By SPOT recently opened, and teams continue to sign up! The top teams from 2008 have already committed to returning, as well as other veteran PQ teams and those new to getting "Primal" - ensuring another competition filled with action, drama and intrigue.

With a $1000 reduction in entry fees from PQ Montana, coupled with the fact that the race will be unsupported, Primal Quest Badlands will be more affordable and accessible than ever, opening up the race for more teams to experience the "World's Most Challenging Human Endurance Competition".

At 600 miles in length the Primal Quest Badlands course will be the longest and most navigationally challenging in PQ history. The unique and stunning South Dakota landscape will make for a dramatic backdrop as competitors race against each other, and the environment itself. They'll trek, mountain bike, climb, swim, kayak and spelunk as they go over, under, up, and down the Badlands and Black Hills in ten days of intense, world-class adventure racing, beginning on August 15th of next year.
