Katelyn held down the fort at our own vendor table alongside incredible athletes like Javier Escobar, Vanessa Gebhardt, Kelly Sullivan, Cassandra Carroll, Matt Carroll, and Josh Fiore who were guests of ours for the event!

We had friend and Patreon supporter of the show Brett Milks on to talk about his experience at the Spartan 3K test event that was held in Jacksonville, Florida!

The change of the Spartan series to the 3K format brings a lot of additional changes other than the race distance. There is also a laser pistol obstacle, the events are planned for Fridays, and the prize money has been noticeably cut (the last change was released after the interview).

We talk about Brett's thoughts on these changes, how the event was run, which athletes would potentially be good for this new event, and much more!

Tracy Brower reached out to us asking if we would be interested in having a talk about Adventure Racing. I immediately remembered the excitement that surrounded Ryan Atkins and Rea Kolbl competing in Eco Challenge a few years ago and how humble Coree Woltering was when we met him shortly after the show was released!

I was more than happy to give her a spot on the show to talk about the sport of Adventure Racing, the similarities with OCR, and of course the events that she puts on as well!

With this show being based out of the United States it's easy to focus on who we have in North America. When it comes to the sport as a whole though it's a massive disservice to the excellent athletes over in Europe!

Trying to get better at this we are really excited to have Ulrikke Evensen on the show for the first time! Mike was able to meet her and have a quick word at OCRWC last year but she is an athlete definitely deserving her own episode!

We talk about her athletic background, thoughts on Spartan's transition to the 3K format, Spartan World Championships in Abu Dhabi, World's Toughest Mudder, OCRWC, and much more!

Check out her previous accomplishments, like her page on Facebook, follow her on Instagram, and consider supporting her sponsors who support her!

Back in August Mike heard an episode of Reinforced Running with a guest that got his attention, years before that he heard him for the first time on I Am A Spartan Podcast!

Now we finally had the chance to have Dave Robinson on our show! We focus on how to set goals in a way that we are more likely to achieve them, how harmful self talk can be if not done appropriately, and the importance of breathing well.

Check out the podcast he currently hosts (Get Enlifted Podcast), work your stories with him, and if you're feeling burnt out then check out Serious Fun!
