Mark Batres is a coach of athletes, Spartan Pro, and a form high-level runner on the track and roads. Including such accolades as - 5 time all American, and a 2:19 marathon. 

But his fast running did not make him an instant success at OCR - he worked as hard to learn the sport and is now one of the best in the world.

In this episode we cover:

• Why the fastest runners are not always the best at OCR
• The mindset to overcome injury - and in Mark’s case a devastating career-threatening injury. 
• The value of coaching and why you should want a coach who has a coach.
• And why you should floss your teeth.
