We wanted to get an episode on the Spartan Beast World Championship again this year but it can be pretty difficult with language and time zone barriers!

Luckily we heard back from Richard Hynek who we have heard and seen a lot about over the past recent years!

We discuss what his athletic background consisted of before obstacle course racing, how he found Spartan Race, the choice to have surgery and the recovery from it, his successful history with the Trifecta World Championship, his more recent podium at the Spartan Beast World Championship, and much more!

Be sure to follow him on social media and check out his RH Running Club!

Start – 4:18 – Intro
