Intrepid Racing Team’s Mission
Intrepid Racing Team is a little different. We participate in a sport that pushes the envelope of the outdoors. Though we compete on the edge, the team has committed itself to producing a different type of athlete, one that gives back. The mission of the team is “to promote outdoor fitness, to teach others to go beyond what they are capable and promote products that are safe for the environment.” We accomplish this by parenting with companies, local schools and camps. Chris MacWatters is the camp director at CampEagle Outdoor Program. Kim Dunkin works with Covenant Classical School teaching sports and also coaching. Kate Wright is a coach, PE teacher and FCA leader. Todd Phillips promotes outdoor living and inspires his audience with his writing. He also serves our country overseas in the medical field.
Organizational History
Intrepid Racing Team was originally founded by Bill Lovelace. The original team had great success with a 3rd place finish at Eco-Challenge. Eco-Challenge put adventure racing on the map and was produced by Mark Burnett. Team Intrepid was made up of world class triathtletes with a dream. In 2005, Kim met and raced with Bill. They formed a friendship. This was Bill’s last race as he was retiring. Kim in the next few years put together a new younger team, but a team with the same values. Though the members are new, Bill serves as mentor and coach. The team has seen a steady success and qualified for nationals this year.

Opportunity
To date Intrepid Racing Team has raised $2750. We are looking to raise an additional $23,550 by offering our services to family, friends, corporations, schools and teams. In in exchange for sponsorship we have several programs we offer to enrich your company. Speaking: I offer motivational speaking with live video from Primal Quest. Traveling for 9 days on 2 hours of sleep per night, really gets you in touch with your primal and spiritual needs. I love sharing with others the great parallels from adventure racing to life. The sacrifice that is made for the team when you are severely dehydrated, or think you cannot go on can be applied to our sacrifice for family and teammates. Helping tow a teammate or being towed by a teammate shows us how to succeed while helping others. Persevering through trials is an ever-present theme as well. I love to inspire people to push themselves- To get involved in their niche and serve others in the areas in which they excel. Teaching people to live on the edge both spiritually and mentally is a central theme when I speak. We can do so much more than we think! I would love to share with your group my journey, and inspire them to go on their own successful journey. SAMPLE FOOTAGE FROM PRIMAL QUEST
Intrepid Adventures can range from a few hours of adventure to a week. Journeys may include a 20 mile weekend trek, a survival weekend adventure, or hours on a course that challenges you and the joy is in the finish. One of my most challenging adventures lasted 8 hours. I was doing a trail run and got calf cramps. I struggled for 6 hours, finished dead last, but finished. The joy was in the finishing. Weekend Challenge: Teams are dropped off in a location with basic supplies, a map and a compass. Teams will have 2 days to make the cut off with all of your team in tact, where you will enjoy a home cooked meal and a debriefing with the goal to unify and inspire. Team Intrepid has been in some of the most remote places in the world. Lives have been changed through engaging in tough challenges in the back country. The team leaders have a wealth of knowledge, to inspire, unify and motivate your group. This is not for the faint of heart. The joy is still in finishing, but also in pushing yourself to the limits. Self-Defense: If adventure is not your thing, we also offer self-defense. Kim has been putting on self-defense clinics and teaching martial arts for 10 years. She is a second-degree black belt in American Karate. Both men and women will benefit from the self-defense techniques taught.
