For the 2008 AR season, Team WPE has teamed up with Team Mad Bear to form Great
Lakes Endurance Racing Teams. We'll now be racing under the name GLTeams.com / Team
Boom. The focus of our team of teams concept is to help promote events that encourage
individuals participation in the sport of Adventure Racing. We do this by partnering with local
race promoters such as Infiterra Sports to speak at events that help further the sport. We also
host our own events that focus on team building, strength and conditioning and other, sport
specific training. New for 2008 is the GLTeams.com LLC concept. We will continue to work
closely and support local AR promoters but will now throw our own collective hats into the mix
by hosting our own events. We'll be offering an all women's adventure race know as
Diamonds and Dirt as well as an urban adventure race in downtown Detroit, The Spirit of
Detroit. Our signature series, the Muddy Watters Bump & Run Trail Series, will also be back
for it's second year of nastiness.
For more information on any of our free Moosejaw workouts and REI clinics, or anything else
we may be putting on, visit the link above.
Each one of us brings something to the table. We hope to take those things and expose as
many people as we can to a sport that's brought so much into our lives. Watch for us in 07!
Did you take a look at the 2008 race season that we listed to the right? You might be thinking,
are you fricken crazy? Well, maybe we are...
Our goal is complete each and every event listed, barring any more unforeseen injuries (such
as broken collar bones, etc.). Whether or not we make every event is not the point. The point is
to be trained enough to do every event. I think that, to be prepared at all times, the best thing to
do is to have something to train for. If the focus is on being race ready, the stress of the event
will be gone. With a long season ahead of us, there's bound to be plenty of bumps and
bruises along the way. But, what the heck, we wouldn't want it any other way.
Check back often for event recaps!
