Welcome to The Dark Zone: An Adventure Racing Podcast. In adventure racing lingo, a dark zone is a time, due to darkness or safety, when teams are paused on the course before continuing with the race. During that time stories are exchanged, friendships are kindled, spirits are restored, and teams have a chance to prepare for the next challenge. We hope that you make good use of The Dark Zone and the stories found throughout our website. We’re glad that you are here.
