It's been another unforgettable week for #NewcastleUnited, and the smiles are (mostly!) still intact… Kris is in the host's chair, joined by Deka, Mark and Besty as the lads look back over a huge few days for the Toon. From standout performances to big moments away from home, we break it all down in our own unique style. But we also have to talk about it…Was this one of the worst refereeing performances you'll ever see? The decisions, the controversy, the disbelief — we go through it all and give our honest reactions. Expect: ⚽ Match analysis

Alan powers through a toothache, shows off his DIY core board, and somehow ends up debating northern accents, oat‑milk lawsuits, and why he's currently fuelled by cow's milk instead of beer. Ian brings the chaos with fitness trends gone wrong (yes, someone runs a 6‑minute mile just to justify fast food), questionable race branding like "Hyathlon," and the latest hybrid racing gossip. They dive into: • The dog‑friendly OCR • AI vending machines behaving badly • Spartan's halftime challenge • DEKA's big marketing opportunity • OCR series updates & adaptive athlete wins • Judges get pay at Deadly Dozen • Six Nations predictions and England's chances It's fast, funny, and full of the usual Swift Half tangents — from dodgy Amazon deliveries to sea‑creature TV shows.  If you have any questions about the show or would like to explore advertising opportunities, feel free to reach out to us at admin@ukocr.com.

Heartbreaks can feel like the end of everything, but if there is anything I have come to learn it's that they are the beginning of truly healing.

OFX EPISODE 269: DEKA WORLDS RECAP.In this week's episode, Dave has a new pizza sign, Beth is visibly jealous of Dave's sign, oh and we talk about DEKA worlds controversies, results, dominant performances, and Dave's World championship win in a niche division of a niche sport in an age group.

TOPICS • Why Brian started TRYKA and what the hybrid space was missing • Dublin TRYKA race weekends and the Portugal finale • TRYKA 500, family divisions, and company participation • Free affiliates, supporting gym owners, and simple scoring • RAMs instead of wall balls and rotating workout plans • AI judging, split standards for pros vs open athletes • UK expansion and ticket-swap marketplace • Why TRYKA favors community over cash prizes • Samantha Faddis on HYROX, DEKA, Battle Bunker, and training as a parent • Where she can gain time in HYROX and how she approaches sleds and rowers • Hybrid garage training, parenting chaos, and Mom Life Rocks • Viral sled-turf reel, relatable content, and dealing with trolls • AI, backyards, and why the robots aren't ready yet SUMMARY Brian Lee joins Matt to talk about TRYKA, an Irish hybrid fitness race built to feel welcoming, local, and accessible without watering the challenge down. They dig into the race-weekend structure in Dublin, the Portugal finale, shorter TRYKA 500 options, free affiliates, company divisions, and why RAMs replaced wall balls. Brian also breaks down ticket demand, AI squat-depth judging, standards for pros vs open athletes, UK expansion, and why TRYKA is leaning toward charity-based rewards instead of cash prizes. In part two, Samantha "Smoose" Faddis comes on to discuss life as a hybrid athlete and parent. She talks HYROX Anaheim and Phoenix, whether DC is still in play, recovery challenges between races, and where she thinks she can still gain real time. Matt and Sam get into sled strategy, rower fatigue after burpees, home-garage training, and the day-to-day realities of raising two kids while trying to train seriously. They also cover the viral sled-turf reel that took off, how MomLifeRox came to life, and why relatable content beats perfect content. The episode closes with a quick detour into AI logos, backyard designs, and why the tech still isn't close to replacing real people.

DEKA World Championships took place in Fort Lauderdale, FL this past weekend and while we focus on being an OCR podcast, this event has my interest every year! Since we didn't fly down to cover it in person (someday!), we looked for an athlete to have on the show to talk about their experience. It didn't take long to pick Brooklyn Nichols as our potential guest as she had an incredible race weekend being the first elite to win all events, especially in an increasingly stacked field! We talk about her background in sport and fitness, coaching, how she came across hybrid racing, her history with DEKA, her plans for the world championships, HYROX, and much more!  We did not discuss the sled station in the DEKA STRONG because what matters is the end result and that Brooklyn had an incredible series of races.  I am not an expert in the sport but that being said Dave Claxton is as the head official, and DEKA stands by their decision and I'm sure there will be other podcasts talking about the situation.

Topics • When podiums should and should not change after the fact • Athlete responsibility to protest versus sport responsibility to enforce standards • Perception of favoritism toward "beloved elites" • Janelle's frustration with self-policing reps after the fact • Brooklyn's tank clip and the problem with "imaginary lines" in judging • Why DEKA needs a clearer tank rule: wheels to the tape versus bolts • Burpees, lunges, and movements that break judges • Cheryl's line: "the best way to kill a good idea is to underfund it" • Men's team mile penalty and why communication matters • Hunter's season debut in Melbourne • Cole Learn hype and the loaded women's field • Anaheim weekend plans Summary Dave joins the show after winning the DEKA Strong Ruck 45 plus world championship and the group breaks down everything that happened at DEKA Worlds. The crew debates when podiums should ever change after the fact, how much responsibility belongs to athletes versus the sport, and whether judging inconsistency is pushing people out of the system. Janelle explains why she should not have to review her own reps on video, walks through the Brooklyn tank clip, and makes the case that the current rules are nearly impossible to enforce in real time. They also hit the men's team mile penalty, the updated mile layout, and whether DEKA has underfunded its own growth. The show wraps with a short HYROX Melbourne preview and plans for Anaheim.

HYROX Regionals gets ripped apart for mixing Open weights with Worlds qualifiers, and everyone agrees it is messy and needs to be separate from Pro. Prize money for the new Elite 15 LCQ is confirmed, and the upcoming Puma HYROX shoe gets early reactions from the crew. Thanksgiving running gets recapped, including Matt's brutal Atlanta hills, Cheryl's short but steep four miler, and Dave's classic run together move that ended with him sprinting away 500 meters in. DEKA China looked unreal with smoke, lighting, a full stage finish, and huge production value. Now the focus shifts to Fort Lauderdale as Dave heads down Wednesday for DEKA Worlds. He is judging, he is racing multiple events, and everyone wants to see how the FIT fields stack up on a fully judged floor. The show covers who is in form, what the judging will look like, what production pieces DEKA needs to nail, and why athletes should film their full race if they want clean evidence for disputes. Plenty of laughs, plenty of inside jokes, and a lot of excitement heading into one of the biggest weekends of the DEKA season.

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Daniel Kapfer (COO der DekaBank) über die strategische Neuausrichtung im Wertpapiergeschäft, die Ein-Depot-Strategie der Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe und die Frage: Wie gewinnen wir die digitale Generation für kapitalmarktorientiertes Sparen?

They discuss why Atlanta's slower sales point to schedule saturation and price more than Halloween, how Flex Pass and transfers should work, and why U.S. events need firm calendars earlier.

We have been wanting to do another episode with Jason Dupree ever since he started carrying North American OCR and hybrid live streams on his back! We may be a bit bias because we have been friends with Jason for many years now but we don't believe he gets half of the credit that he deserves for what he does for both sports.   We discuss how he started live streaming these sports, how much money we are making/losing from this pursuit, how you can help support the live stream, his rebranded OCR Tech Talk, getting ahead of burnout, a near death experience with a tree on the way back from covering Spartan Blue Mountain, and much more! Please reach out to Jason or Will to see how you can reach out and help support what they are doing with the video coverage, and also consider supporting their Patreon!

We went to Colorado for a wedding (congratulations Mike and Kierstin!) and wanted to cram in as much sightseeing as possible.  We weren't able to go to the Red Rocks on Saturday due to an event but luckily Katelyn saw that the following day had a 5K that we could participate in! A quick Target trip later we were mostly ready to take on the event at 6,000 feet.  It was a fun  event fueled by great music and it was also for a great cause with it supporting the American Lung Association in Colorado!

The FISO OCR World Championships recently had their 3rd event weekend in Sweden this year and by all accounts it was the best one by far! This is admittely a low bar due to overflowing portopotties in Belgium and many obstacles not being built in Costa Rica, etc. However, by working alongside the Tough Viking crew they had plenty of  experience to put on a proper word championship event! Two members of USAOCR, Vivien Tran and Kevin Thompson, wanted to come on the show to talk about their experience at the event, differences from previous years, and more.  They also have their own regional championship which will be held at the War X venue towards the end of June next year! If you have any interest in representing your country on an elite, age group, or paralympic level at the next FISO OCR World Championship, compete in the USAOCR championship, or volunteer to help the USAOCR organization then please reach out to them via Instagram or on their website!
