After World's Toughest Mudder is over and everyone has had a nice time at the WTM Champions Brunch, everyone heads over to the WTM Bar Crawl. At a typical bar crawl, you start at a bar and go to several other bars with your friends. At the WTM Bar Crawl, you go to one bar and then crawl around because you're so tired from the race. (The "crawl" is more of a metaphor. People walk.) We talked with folks about their race at the Bar Crawl. In this episode you will hear from: Deanna Brasz Joe Van Dyke Dan Kuvaas Jules Estes Carlo Piscitello JT Jessica Johnson Matthew Susko Enjoy! We will see you at the Bar Crawl in less than two months!---

Chris Maltbie and Jen Mizono are long time race directors for World's Toughest Mudder. They were co-race directors for WTM 2023. We sat down with them following the Post-Race Brunch after WTM 2023. Chris and Jen talk about the behind-the-scenes work to bring the race to life, what they're thinking about as they're planning the race, and what specific feedback they received about the race. Before we talk with Chris and Jen, Will talks about how to leave a review for the podcast at Lovethepodcast.com/tough. Can you take 30 seconds and leave a review for the show? It will help out the show and we will be grateful. We will read it in a future episode. Thank you!---
