Anyone watching Primal Quest?

That is a BEAST of a race! Its on OLN if anyone's interested.

Man, I don't get OLN anymore. I did watch the two hour version on regular tv a couple of months ago.

Why don't you get OLN? Did you cut your cable access?

No, I switched to satelite last year. It's a way better deal but I do miss OLN for these special events. They used to have great mountain biking shows but they got more into hunting and fishing and started to lose me which helped me make the change.

Yeah, the SPQ is a pretty amazing race! I watched the CBS coverage in January, and it seems the OLN coverage is almost exactly the same (even a lot of the same script), but with the segments being a bit longer.

While the race was going on, a friend who was crewing for Team Silly Rabbits was writing race reports and sending in photos from the field ... I was kinda hoping to see some of the 'Rabbits on the TV covereage, but only saw them once!

If anyone's interested, the stories from the field are here:

I did just over half of a 100-mile race a few weeks ago ... I can't even imagine how much endurance it would take to do that eight times over!
