Will Gilmore
Gilmore finishes the 2008 Primal Quest Expedtion Race in Montana with a smile nine plus days after the start!
Name: Will Gilmore
Nickname: "Will"
Location: Northern California
Occupation: Investment Analyst
Age: 3*
Specialty: Navigation, strategy and motivating others in the early morning to keep pressing to the finish.
Hidden talent: Able to run away from rabid dogs, leap off 3 foot walls, and will eat anything to survive.
Weakness: Stopping at the end of the race :)
Favorite piece of gear: My National Geographics TOPO! map software for studying maps of upcoming races!
Favorite training spot: Northern California:
The Sierra Nevada Range for Training at Elevation,
The Lost Coast of Mendocino for Challenging Navigation,
The Great Sacramento Valley for Heat Acclimation,
Etc.
Favorite avocado dish: Green Eggs and Ham plus Avocados
Worst AR Moment: Will's worst moment racing was in 2000 at the USARA National Championship Race south of Yosemite at above 8,000ft pushing a bike uphill in snow with multiple fractured ribs and "walking pnemonia." Everything after that seems easy to him!
Best AR Moment: Navigating our team through a boat portage from Prince Rupert to the Work Sound Inlet though a temperate rainforest in the Raid the North Extreme Race and hitting my intended target (off by 60 yards after 5 plus miles) all the while carrying a boat on my back through the forest and down ravines.
Favorite Race Food Gummy Bears
