Sports are changing as rapidly as they have in decades. It is the age of a new sports athlete, who is comfortable doing adventure races like Primal Quest but also competes in more traditional sporting activities. Today’s great athletes combine all sorts of skills. Their fitness regimens are fine tuned. They are technologically savvy.
In this modern age of sports, questions persist about what makes the greatest athletes in the world.
How do we determine the ultimate athlete? is the ultimate athlete a man or a woman? The answer to these questions will be answered next June in Portland, Oregon with the first ever “Search for the Ultimate Athlete,” competition. The competition will feature 24 of the world’s best athletes, competing in 20 sports and disciplines. Men and women will compete head to head. In the end, one athlete will remain.
Registration will open in the coming weeks. In June, 2010, the athletes will gather in Portland for six days of competition.
Yves Garceau is the man who is bringing the competition to life. Yves grew up Montreal. He pioneered helicopter skiing in Banff, Canada. From there, he turned his attention to tennis. In less than three years after taking up the sport, Yves joined the tennis circuit as a professional. He is a film maker and adventurer.
Yves has traveled the world. Nowhere is there a place in his journeys that is better suited for an ultimate athlete competition than Oregon, the place he calls home.
In Oregon, you can spend your morning skiing in the mountains, playing golf in the afternoon and finishing with surfing in the Pacific Ocean.
The conditions are ideal. Oregon is the perfect place to put the question to the test: Who is the ultimate athlete?
