Obstacle Running Adventures

We had MudGear-Hannibal Race Pro Team member Rachel Watters on the show for her own episode!

We have heard great things about Rachel for a while before we had the opportunity to finally meet her in person when covering RuckFest in person last year!

There was no shortage of things to talk to her about but we primarily focus on her trip to Kuwait for Hannibal Race, her 105 mile OCR challenge done to fundraise for Lionheart Fitness, her experience at the Chicago Savage Series Race where she placed 3rd bumping her up to 4th on the overall leaderboard, as well as a discussion on mental health!

Mike and Katelyn took the drive down to Palmerton, Pennsylvania to cover the most stacked Spartan race that they have ever been to (also to visit Scranton which The Office was based on)!

This was also the first time meeting a lot of these Spartan athletes and staff as well which was great because the big series races don't come to the northeast like they used to. Check below to see what athletes we had on the show and around what time to find them!

Last weekend was the Savage Chicago Point Series Race and there was a face on the podium that we (and likely many others) did not recognize!

Noah Buschur was the athlete to place 3rd behind Shawn Roberts and Ryan Kempson! Not only is he talented in OCR (and making us feel old), but he is also an artist, ninja, and has experience with mini horses!

A couple weeks ago we mentioned it on quick news but since James Golisano is a good friend of the show we figured we would have him on to talk about his Go Fund Me. This isn't something we do often but we figured that it'd be a good way and try to help!

James opened up Monadnock Ninja back in 2020 and helped form a local community of youth ninjas. With very little notice he was told that the building that he had been renting was going to be sold so him and his equiptment don't really have anywhere to go.

While the goal of the Go Fund Me is pretty large, I'm sure he would appreciate whatever could be given in order to help get this community back on their feet so they can continue their fun fitness.

Any longtime listener knows how much we value local OCR. One of our favorite event organizers in the northeast is Newbsanity due to the incredible community that they have built up and the fact that it is one of the best permanent courses that we have ever experienced in our years in the sport.

Newbsanity put on their first Last Man Standing event and we had Esther Frustino on the show to talk about how she tied for first place woman!

We had Kaci Monroe on the show to talk about her previous experience with Spartan Race, her recent podium at a Savage Point Series Race, and much more!

Kaci is someone who we have wanted to have on the show for a few years now. We are a weekly show so there are only 52 episodes in a year which sounds like a lot but isn't that many when you see how we plan out our year of coverage with all the events we cover.

We had a weekend prepared for a Savage Ohio finisher and Kaci placed 2nd which is her highest placement so far and a huge improvement from her DNF when she first took on Savage Race earlier this year!

Last weekend was massive for the sport of OCR in Europe! There was both Spartan European Championship as well as OCR European Championships. We followed the latter more closely and were excited to find a guest to come on the show and talk about it.

Jesse de Heer finished first for the short course, second on the standard course, and his team Hang On placed first for the men's relay race! Having a pretty excellent finish in all events we figured that he would be a great guest to have on the show to talk about their events!

We discuss the 3 band penalty system used, how it felt to take second to a teammate, strengths and weaknesses of European OCR, an overly complicated rule book, the seperation of Spartan and other OCR athletes, and much more!

You can also hear more from Jesse and his teammate Stijn on a recent episode of Obstacle Racing Media here too!

Annie Dube was frequently found on the podium in some pretty big events, and is still a member of the OCR Dream Team. Unfortunately with Spartan Race drastically changing the format of their series we have been robbed from seeing her and many other athletes compete lately.

She did jump into her first Savage Race in Charlotte, NC last weekend and won by about 8 minutes so we had her on to discuss her experience with a different race series. We also talk about when athletes should make the decision to jump up to elite from age group, how the OCR Dream Team is still figuring out their future, and what other events she plans to do this year!

There are a lot of incredible events that don't get the love they deserve, I would put Goliathon towards the top of that list. We weren't able to go down to the event due to the aforementioned house construction but I looked through the results for a potential guest.

I saw that there was only one athlete who reached the status of David this year (which is a pretty damn big deal). Isaac Waychoff was that athlete so I reached out to him about coming on the show!

It was great hearing about his gymnastic and ninja background. We walk through the 3 different difficulties of each of their 12 grand scale obstacles (watch videos of them here), his attitude with taking on this event, how it feels to be a 2x David achiever, and much more!

Going back towards the beginning of the sport Rose Wetzel was often seen on the podiums, fast forward a decade to now and Rose continues to be competitive in the elite field!

We have had her on the show a few times before for NorAM and OCRWC finish line interviews but it's easy to say that she very much deserved her own episode!

We discuss what it has been like seeing the sport change over the years, what keeps her involved in OCR, the balance of being both a mother and an athlete, thoughts on the Spartan 3K, and much more!
