March 21, 2024 #11 - 2x Worlds Toughest Mudder Champion & Ultra Endurance Athlete | Kris Rugloski
Kris was a ton of fun to have on the podcast. She is so humble, driven, and passionate about what she does in OCR and the endurance world. Kris is a 2x Worlds Toughest Mudder Champion and was the first women to complete 100 miles. She's also competed at a high level in Tough Mudder, Spartan, Savage, Hydrox, 100ks, Grid Games, 100 milers and many more. The crazy part is that she is only 27 years old!
What you may not know, is that this didn't come easy to Kris. She didn't grow up in sports or with a mindset that anything with possible. She learned this by doing. She started to compete at the age of 19 and didn't feel like she had the confidence to really compete with everyone. What she did though, is stuck with it and put in the work. I bring this up because everyone starts at ground zero. No one is special. You just have to get started and show yourself what is possible.
I hope you enjoy this podcast! If you do please subscribe and give it a follow!

February 29, 2024 #9 - 1st Briton To Complete The Triple Crown of 200s, Feeling Alive, & Mistaking Comfort For Happiness | Scott Jenkins
I am so grateful and lucky to have Scott Jenkins on the podcast. He is one of the most humble and kind people I have ever spoken to. Scott is an Ultra endurance runner and philanthropist. For those of you that don't know Scott, in 2023 he became the first British man to complete the Triple Crown of 200s which consist of the Moab 240, Bigfoot 200, and Tahoe 200, and finished 5th over between the 3 races which is an amazing feat to say the least.

Here are a few more of his incredible accomplishments.

-  In 2021 he set the British course record at Moab 240 (77 hours and 2 minutes finishing 15th/227).
-  He also became only the 924th person in history to complete the official Badwater 135.
-  He has run 100 miles in sub 22hours and finished 6th overall in the UK’s Canalslam in 2019.
-  In 2022 Scott ran the Cocodona 250 Ultramarathon in Arizona. (97 Hrs 04 Mins)
-  Scott first got the “ultra-running bug” after completing 75 marathons in 75 days from Boston to Austin 2000 miles in 2010.

He is also an ambassador for the Operation Smile charity and spent time on a charity mission to Mekele, Ethiopia to see and help firsthand with the work that they do. Over the course of the years the money he’s raised has helped achieve giving over 85 children the ability to smile for the 1st time.
We discussed Scotts endurance feats, his training, his mindset, fear of failure, pushing yourself to be uncomfortable and so much more! If you would like to follow Scott, you can find him on Twitter and Instagram @scottjjenkins. I hope you enjoy the podcast. And again, CHASE DISCOMFORT!

I had an awesome time with Lu Gomes on the podcast. This is our 3rd or 4th time taking on it. Lu and I go back 8 years where we met at Springfield College and connected from day one. I always say this but, you can’t help but be drawn to Lu’s positivity and energy.

Lu has accomplished so much over the years, from finishing his Bachelor’s in Health Education, Masters in Health Promotion, running his first 10k race, to going 0-27 in wrestling and Jujitsu to winning his last 2 matches. This just shows Lu's determination The wild part of this is that Lu has accomplished this with being born with Cerebral Palsy which for him is something that he has never used as an excuse been to why he can’t accomplish something.

In the podcast we discuss the importance of building a team around you to help you, support you, and push you to be better, the importance of having a positive mindset and focusing on what YOU can control, the ability to push yourself physically and mentally to see what your capable of and so much more.

December 28, 2023 #5 - Self Motivation, Taking Risks, Pushing Your Limit | Christian Brown-Johnson
It was awesome taking the time to talk to Christian Brown-Johnson on the podcast!
Christian is an awesome guy that has been in the endurance world since the young age of 20 years old and has competed in 150+ races that include, Worlds Toughest Mudders, Tough Mudders, Ironman, Ultras, Spartans, Triathlons, and many more.

A few of his biggest accomplishments are his two 100-mile finishes at World’s Toughest Mudder and competing in the Ironman World Championships. This year he is flying out to Saudi Arabia to do a Tough Mudder 8-hour Infinity race in a 4-man team to compete against the best in the world and will also be competing in an Ironman in Texas and again taking on World’s Toughest Mudder in Florida.

He believes that everyone is capable of anything they put their mind to, but it starts with believing that YOU can do it. I hope you enjoy this podcast and take something that you can apply into your life.

December 21, 2023 #4 - Finding Your Limit, Going All In, Doing What You Love, | DJ Fox
DJ Fox is an amazing athlete with an incredible mindset. DJ won The Worlds Toughest Mudder in 2022 and came in 3rd in The Worlds Toughest Mudder in 2021. For those that don't know, this race is a 24 hour endurance obstacle course race. In 2023, DJ attempted to break a world record on the Colorado Trail, which is a 485 mile trail with over 90,000 feet of elevation gain. The current record he was trying to break was 7 days and 14 hours. In the attempt to break the record, DJ had to bow out after 425 miles of battling a bad foot and ankle injury, and major fluid build up in his lungs. The amazing part of this is that Dj is going to be coming back to break this record in 2024.
DJ's next goal is going to be a Toughest Mudder in Saudi Arabia on February 26th in 2024, which is a 8 hour race where you accumulate as much milage as possible. This race has the largest prize pool in OCR history giving out over $480,000 dollars in price money and $80,000 to first place.
After having the chance to talk to DJ, I am so excited to follow his journey over the next year as he continues to push his limits in finding out what is possible not only physically but mentally.
If you want to follow DJ or reach out for coaching, you can find him on Instagram under dee_jay_fox
