This week, Alan sits down with Gavin Hogarth to dive into the world of Tartan Warrior and the thriving OCR scene at Fit Body Farm. Gavin shares what's coming up for this year's event weekend — from the 3K Championships to the new 400m course and junior races — and the philosophy behind designing courses that challenge seasoned racers while staying fun and accessible for newcomers.

They look back at the success of past obstacles and community favourites, explore the logistics of hosting the British Obstacle Sports 3K Championships, and talk about the unique challenges of planning races around life on a working farm.

Gavin also opens up about the origins of Fit Body Farm, how a 115‑year‑old dairy farm became a buzzing fitness hub, and the evolution of their HIROX simulations and Friday Night Rocks competitions. Alan and Gavin round things off with a tour of Scotland's scenic gems — from castles to the Isle of Arran — and why OCR in the Scottish weather just hits differently.

A blend of passion, community, and pure OCR grit.
