Paul Cox: Instructor

Paul has always had an intense passion for the outdoors. First a backpacker and mountain biker, he was grabbed by the lure of adventure racing roughly 5 years ago and has immersed himself in the sport since. While his favorite disciplines are paddling and mountain biking, the 1998 graduate of the National Outdoor Leadership School mostly loves the way racing stresses good teamwork and brings out leadership qualities in each member. His goal for each race is to see where his mates can use his skills and give it his all to help them move fast and efficiently. And he never forgets to have fun along the way.
