He has two daughters, is married to Kris, a class 5 kayaker from who he got his white water experience. He loves ice climbing, mountaineering, snowboarding and has been playing hockey since he was potty trained.

NAVIGATOR - Jeremy Colgan

Home - Lower East Side, New York
Age - 36

Jeremy was born and raised in Belfast, Northern Ireland and lived in London, Paris and China before coming to New York over eight years ago. He works as an attorney at a law firm in New York City and offsets this sendentary lifestyle by getting out of the city and into the woods as often as possible.

Jeremy comes to the team with a fair amount of previous experience in long distance endurance events but nothing as long as Primal Quest including among others the Marathon des Sables (2007) and Ironman (Lake Placid 2005). Having said that he is really an orienteeror first and foremost. In the past he has done a number of Rogaines (long distance orienteering events) and he is hoping that this experience will stand him in good stead for PQ. Not surprisingly therefore he is looking forward to the foot work that Primal Quest involves but isn’t so keen on the paddle section; River Boarding on the other hand should be fun!

This is Becky’s first Primal Quest race - a challenge and adventure that she’s looking forward to experiencing. She enjoys ultra running, completing several 50K, 50M, and 100M races, and also really enjoys the multi-sport variety and teamwork aspects of adventure racing.
