Team Philosophy
Boulder Performance Network’s racing philosophy is simple…be an ambassador for the sport and show other adventure racers how to be competitive, have fun as a team, and learn a little about where we are racing and ourselves maybe! Adventure racing isn’t about suffering. It is about synergy with your teammates and we strive to find that synergy every race. Danny Suter has been providing us with training programs since 2005 and we think he’s the best AR coach on the market! All of us race individually for some of the most competitive teams in the nation…we come together for BPN to race in the Rocky Mountain region. We look forward to seeing you before, during, and after the race!
