Obstacle Running Adventures

We needed to pivot from our original gameplan so hard that I may have sprained a metaphorical ankle. Anyway, instead of hearing from an elite athlete who competed at the big Spartan Race in Blue Mountain (because we were ghosted ... spooky!) we turned to our trusty friend Angela who is always traveling around doing races!

This time we got even more lucky because her race this weekend was the Spartan Dallas Ultra (Beast)! Why is that lucky? Well, because it was at the venue of Twins Canyon Ranch!! ... still not catching on? This is reportedly one of a few venues being considered for World's Toughest Mudder 2023!!!

This news was initially posted by Inside OCR but has since been followed up by The OCR Report, and Obstacle Racing Media.

One of Mike's favorite new podcasts has been the OCRWC Podcast! First off, the more podcasts on OCR the better, second it is more likely to have a wider range of athletes on the show due to both the broad nature of the show and the fact that the host is from England! Following the show from the start Mike still didn't know much of anything about the host though. When he found out who she was he reached out to her earlier this year and planned to have her on the show for an episode the weekend before the big event to help build more excitement!

Fran Chiorando talks about how she got into obstacle course racing, how she started to work with the founder of OCRWC (Adrian Bijanada), what she is looking forward to most next weekend, and much more!

We had Shawn Roberts on the show for the first time! Mike has occasionally reached out to him throughout the past couple years to congratulate him and offer other words of support and he met him in person and spoke off the mic at OCRWC 2021.

Earlier this year he reached back out and said that he wanted to come on the show. Very interested in having another conversation with him and figuring that it could be a great way to build anticipation for OCRWC we had this call where we discuss that race as well as the Savage Race series, and a few other things!

Rylan Schadegg won the Spartan North American Championship last weekend in Kelowna located in British Columbia, Canada! This weekend he won the Palm Beach Deka Fit setting a new record and beating Ryan Kent by seconds!

These are pretty impressive accomplishments but only some of the reasons why we wanted to have him on the show! On previous appearances on other podcasts like Reinforced Running and The Running Public he was very vocal about his history of disordered eating, and he discussed being plagued with injuries like his calcaneus. Through interviewing other athletes in the sport Rylan also frequently came up as lending a helpful hand to his competitors. This may have been the biggest factor in being excited to have him on the show since he is new blood in the sport and a perfect fit in our awesome OCR community!

Spartan North American Championship was this weekend in Kelowna located in British Columbia, Canada!

This is a new venue and it yielded a new podium! Taking 3rd place for the men was Shaun Stephens-Whale, an athlete we have only had on the show once back in 2018 but we remembered him having an interesting sports background which featured tower running, and had heard that his training was very focused heading into this event!

We discuss the sport of tower running, his preparation and race in Kelowna, oh and his experience with a bear attacking him! 0:00 – 3:37 – Intro

Mike was invited back to cover RuckFest which is a competitive rucking event featuring a trail event, games events, as well as a team krew event. They are all run by Brandon Welling from TPK Endurance and Mark Jones!

This time Mike stepped up and ran the 6.9 mile competitive trail course instead of the 3.1 mile fun run, and he brought Katelyn too! After participating in the trail event both Mike and Katelyn volunteered to help out with the Ruck Games!

This is a long episode due to getting event audio to give you listeners more of an understanding of what the event is like (and hopefully encourage you to join next year), and a bunch of interviews.
