MICHAEL TOBIN - Michael joined Team Nike after 15 years competing professionally in running, duathlon, mountain biking, triathlon and Xterra. But, perhaps, it is getting lost, stuck and hungry while exploring mountains, deserts and canyons in his youth that best prepared him for the rigors of adventure racing. Michael credits growing up in a family of accomplished, hyper competitive athletes as excellent team dynamics training. "Every adventure race is a learning experience, we try to refine our athletic disciplines, minimize mistakes, yet, there always seems to be a surprise." Michael lives in Boise, Idaho with his wife Jenny, an accomplished multi-sport athlete in her own right and their daughter Mikella.
