In this section, our third profiled client of the month, Devlin Rambo, answers our Seven Super Questions! Congrats Devlin and keep up the good work! Devlin is coached by Patrick McCrann.

1. Town, State: San Diego since 1997 before that Kahala HI.
2. Training Focus: That's a tough one, as there are so many aspects you have to train for in adventure racing.  I would say the main three are running, biking and kayaking, although hiking, orienteering, caving, white water swimming/rafting, etc are valid events.  In the past we would train navigating by having our race partners bushwhack over all types of terrain, then hand over the maps and make us navigate to a certain point.
3. Your "A Race" for 2005: ExploreCA Santa Ana 24 hour
4. #1 goal My main goal is to compete in EcoChallenge or Primal Quest (Eco Challenge is currently in hiatus since Mark Burnett is to busy with reality T.V. to set up the race)
5. Athletic Accomplishment You Are Most Proud Of: Wow this is a very tough one, as I am sure all of us have made accomplishments along the way we are proud of.  Mainly I would say sticking it out in AR for as long as I have. Some races are downright a mental nightmare, while some are more physical.  So to answer the question, Learning how to overcome mentally and physically hardships that can occur while racing and staying positive knowing your body will bounce back.  Basically never quitting!  Also having the pros start to recognize me is kinda nice :)
6. Favorite Snack/Food: Give me Gummi Bears any day :)
7. I'd rather be...So many things but mainly traveling the world, exploring new areas and okay meeting awesome people. Learning more about myself and the people closest in my life.  Also since I know everyone is from Patriot Country, watching the Steelers win the Superbowl this year
