With World's Toughest Mudder coming up soon and it being both the first time the event is taking place in Europe as well as Katelyn's first time tackling the event herself, we figured it would be a good time to both selflessly and selfishly have an episode focused on first timer questions! Josh Fiore had been answering first timer questions on the WTM First Timer facebook group so we figured that he would be a great guest due to him being knowledgeable and has shown to take time out of his day to try to help those who are preparing to take on this ultra OCR! Josh shares his experinces and insights about training, race preparation, and how to stay positive during all 25.5 hours of World's Toughest Mudder!  Start – 4:02 – Intro 4:02 – 17:06 – Quick News 17:06 – 18:11 – Content Preface 18:11 – 1:20:15 - Josh Fiore Interview 1:20:15 – End – Outro Next weekend we aren't sure who we will have on the show yet but Mike has an idea that is proving to be pretty timely!  ____ News Stories: Jaleesa Himka Graduated Sara Korba Eye Surgery Jessika Poppe Engaged Jess O'Connell Had Baby Chainsaw Rick Has Cancer Ulrikke Evensen Injured Again World's Oldest Bodybuilder One World Canine OCR Clothing Optional 5K DEKA World Championship Location Spartan Ohio Ultra, Beast, and Super Podiums Tug Mud Dare Podiums Spartan Kyiv Sprint and Super Podiums Spartan Big Bear and Austin Trail Podiums Spartan Toronto Sprint and Super Podiums Tough Mudder Infinity Philadelphia Podiums Bear Crawl OCR Podiums Spartan UK National Series London West Super and Beast Podiums Spartan Chiba Super Podiums Spartan Ivory's Rock Ultra and Beast Podiums Spartan Zandvoort Beast Podiums ASCO Spartacus Dash Podiums Spartan Ivory Rock Sprint and Super Podiums Toughest Malmo Podiums Spartan Italy National Series Cesenatico Sprint and Super Podiums Rumble Fitness 3K Podiums Dog Poker Secret Link Dubstep Karaoke Secret Link Beer Solo Secret Link Money Lesson Secret Link Jeppson's Malort Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 114.

We admittedly haven't had any episodes covering the US Spartan National so far this year so we looked at the third of four series races which took place in Big Bear and decided to change that! Mike first met Sabrina Buhagiar when doing finish line interviews at Spartan Citi Field last year, he saw her again preparing before we started the Spartan New Jersey Ultra last month!   When he saw that she took a podium finish at a Spartan Series race he reached out to have her on the show to be a guest via an interview. We discuss her athletic background being swimming, how she found the sport of obstacle course racing, how this and the previous two series races went for her, as well as her preparation for two Spartan Championship weekends later this year!

A benefit to reviewing the podiums for a variety of races during quick news each week is that is helps us keep a finger on the pulse of the change in the elite field in the sport!

When Mike was preparing to run his first Spartan Ultra he reached out to some elites to see who else would be there.  Joe Rucco explained that he was going to miss it in order to take on Toughest Mudder Atlanta ... well, he won it! We have had him on the show a few times in the past ranging from hybrid racing to World's Toughest Mudder and Spartan Stadium races but we never had him on for his own episode so we reached out to change that! You'll hear him talk about how he found the sport back in 2012, his love for both hybrid racing and OCR, how he balances his family life and training, winning Toughest Mudder Atlanta, a slight injury he recieved from a local race the weekend after, some events he has planned before World's Toughest Mudder at Belvoir Castle, and much more!

Part of being a weekly podcast and playing the role of media in a sport means that your own  athletic goals need to be put more in the background (Jason Dupree doing live streams for The OCR Report, Brakken Krakker recording and producing The Running Public, Matt B Davis heading Hybrid Fitness Media, etc.).  That being said, there are still a couple challenges left that Mike has been wanting to take on in the sport of OCR. One of them being wanting to try a Spartan Ultra Beast for the past 8 years, now just called the Spartan Ultra. Katelyn wanted to do an episode interviewing Mike about his first Spartan Ultra experience, he figured that it wouldn't be nearly as interesting as him doing pit by pit coverage of her first WTM which plan to be done in June.  As you can tell from the title though, he/I had my first DNF though so maybe that would be worth talking about for a bit. We are also supplementing the episode with a reRun of our 17th episode which covered Alex taking on his first Spartan Ultra Beast at the same venue in NJ back in 2017 so it's a bit of a hybrid release! Start – 4:33 – Intro 4:33 – 11:25 – Quick News 11:25 – 9:10 – Content Preface 9:10 – 49:47 - Mike's DNF Interview 49:47 – 1:18:56 - reRUN of  17.

The New England OCR Expo returned for its 4th year and it was the second time being at the venue of Ultimate Obstacles!

We have been busy and didn't get the chance to do anything fun for April Fools this year, there also weren't any events that grabbed our attention that we could've done an episode on (other than maybe British OCR 3K Championship but time zone differences make it difficult)!

Many years ago we remember the Burmuda Triple Challenge being advertized on Obstacle Racing Media's podcast.  When we found out that a friend was doing it this year, we were surprised to realize that it was still around! This friend was Michael Kantor who went down to take on the events with his girlfriend Shannon Woodill.  We figured that if we didn't know it was still around then many others wouldn't as well, so we decided to have them on show to talk about it! We talk about their background in the sport, the island of Bermuda, the 3 different events, unique obstacles, what cause the races supported, additional things to do while on the island, and much more!

"If we want more books written about the sport, we need to buy books written about the sport" is a phrase that Mike and many others have repeated for years regarding OCR!  Due to this we have had a few authors on the show ranging from Des Linden to Gwendolyn Bounds! Tara Pipia reached out to us about her book "Sober Up: Spartan Style" which was published in December of last year! As described on the website, the book "sheds light on how Spartan Race and DEKA, Spartan's partner sport, have reconnected individuals with themselves and others, particularly after struggling with substance misuse. Highlighting the pressing issue of the current drug epidemic, Dr. Pipia advocates for the integration of Spartan Race and DEKA into rehabilitation centers, envisioning a supportive and healthy environment for individuals upon their release." Be sure to check out her book on Amazon and follow along with Tara on social media!

We planned to finally give Abominable Snow Race some well deserved attention with a couple guests but we were unable to find a time that worked out after 2 attempts at rescheduling.  So after panicking for a while Mike resorted to another reRun episode, this time reairing our 4th episode which originally came out on January 29th, 2017! Long ago when OCR was still doing well in the Northeast of the US we had winter snow races with both Blizzard Blast in Massachusetts and Spartan Greek Peak in New York!  As someone who loves the cold, Mike misses one of the original local races in New England and figured that this would be an appropriate episode to rerelease since we are still in the winter months!

I have been wanting to do this for a while ... even though I'm not sure him or the others in The OCR Report believed me! It's Jack Goras, the guy behind the camera at pretty much every major OCR that has happened in Europe or North America in the past 5 or so years! We haven't had much time to talk in the past when covering events since we are usually busy doing interviews while he is taking pictures and editing.  However we did get to hang out more at World's Toughest Mudder last year since it was a 24+ hour event, we shared a room at the  air bnb, and he hung out at the bar crawl. This was my way of getting to know more about him, so now you can also get to know him! We talk about photography, his favorite places that he has been, how he ended up being the photographer for The OCR Report, some travel nightmares, how he is going back to Ukraine to help yet again, and much more! 0:00 – 3:25 – Intro 3:25 – 7:46 – Quick News 7:46 – 8:11 – Content Preface 8:11 - 1:02:15 - Jack Goras Interview 1:02:15 - End – Outro Next weekend we will hopefully have another athlete on to talk about OCRWC and Spartan's  Short Course Championship in Croatia or a member of my local running club who ran every  street in Boston! ____ News Stories: Logan Nagel Married Tough Mudder Course of Legos Deejay Fox Running for Tourette Syndrome Awareness Spartan Bear Fired Ally Tippetts Baby Hannibal Race Postponed Leon Skin Cancer Removed Spartan Dallas Ultra Podiums Spartan Dallas Beast Podiums Spartan Dallas Super Podiums Hair Kombat Secret Link Muscle Deception Secret Link Northeast Hiking Secret Link Suit Marathon Secret Link Water Dive Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 359.

A bit of a pivot for this week's episode since Mike had his "A race" of the year, the FIT Challenge Survival of the FITtest! A couple years ago he planned to take on the 30 hour but due to an upcoming wedding, the final and most difficult semester of grad school, and some achilles pain the registration was moved back. This is the raw and pretty unedited (especially since Audacity gave me issues with the episode and I needed to redo almost everything) journey of me being able to call myself an ultra runner again!  So enjoy a look at the inside of my mind, many mistakes when talking, and a few ultra mistakes too!

We had Yaris Cruz on the show once before while doing interviews at OCRWC in 2021, having her on again for her own episode was long overdue!

Back in the day Spartan Stadium races were our favorite to both run and cover as media.  We remember seeing a large man in a clown mask doing well at most of the events that we went to.  Over more recent years Kevin Gregory/Bubbles the Clowne has grown to be even more of a threat in the hybrid racing scene! Kevin has also become a friend of the show, as well as Mike's coach for about a year.  Mike vowed that his first hybrid fitness race would be at his gym Underdog Fitness in Wallingford, CT!  It took a while to get a date to fit in the schedule but Katelyn and Mike took it on despite Mike being pretty nervous (I am not a strong man) and having back issues (likely a weak core), and Katelyn waking up sick on Friday. You'll hear from David Rundio, Kristine Pavelchak, Robert Landman, Ashley Harten, Lauren Carlson, Melinda Noel, Michael Racine, Greg Viggiano, Katelyn Ritter, ?, Heather Dall'Aste, Elizabeth Almansa, Kelly Sullivan, Taylor Febus, Mike Tubiak, Lisa Wawrzynowski, Kiefer Callisto, Amber Tait, Alexander Golik, Jess Gregory, Zack Tait, and Kevin Gregory! 0:00 – 4:54 – Intro 5:54 – 19:53 – Quick News 19:53 – 21:03 – Content Preface 21:03 - 1:23:08 - Underdog Fitness Interviews 1:23:08 - End – Outro Next episode is hopefully going to cover Obstacle Wonderland's Boogie 3 and 6 hour event in New York! ____ News Stories: Get Your Ass To 2024 New England OCR Expo on April 20th (use code "obstacles" for $5 off) Spartan Brought Back Prize Money to Remaining 2024 USNS Races 20 Page Recipe Bundle from Fittest Foodie When You Subscribe to VJ Newsletter Ida Mathilde Steensgaard Partnered with Team LSKD Spartan Post Pandemic Finishers According to ORM OCR Numbers According to OCR Buddy OCR World Series Now Features Cuba Savage Race Teamed Up with GORUCK for Jerry Carry Obstacle Race Ready Obstacle's New Obstacle WOCRF Enters the Confusion of OCR Leadership Ryan Brizzolara Engaged Hopstacle Run Podiums Spartan San Jose Beast Podiums Spartan San Jose Ultra Podiums Spartan San Jose Super Podiums Savage Race Gainesville Podiums Spartan Charlotte Super Podiums Spartan Charlotte Sprint Podiums Los Angeles Tough Mudder Infinity Podiums Underdog Fitness Deka Mile Podiums Happiness Goal Secret Link Carpenter Prank Secret Link Halloween Decoration Secret Link Horse Cyclist Secret Link Fire Sprinkler Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 74.

Kevin is well known on the OCR scene as Bubbles the Clown, we've all heard the high pitch voice and seen the antics of the neon green bedecked rubber masked man... But there's a lot more to him than just entertainment. After an insanely impressive performance at Deka World Championships it was time to get him on and talk about his love for Hybrid racing, explore a little more about what it actually is, and why he is so good at what he does. We also delve into mental health and the importance of caring for yourself and others, and how OCR has played a huge role in so many people's MH.

This week we going hybrid and are giving some love to the Deka World Championships in Texas that happened last weekend! While hybrid racing isn't a focus for this show or a big passion for us personally, we wanted to switch gears for a bit and hear more about this big long weekend event. Kevin Gregory not only won the Deka Strong but also won 4 different team events with one of them creating a new world record!  He has an extensive history in obstacle course racing but has really found his niche in hybrid racing as you can hear about the first time we had him on for his own episode!

OFX EPISODE # 145: KEVIN GREGORY. Brought to you by Duonamic. Kevin is widely known as an absolute beast and the destroyer of Assault bikes all over North America, but he is far more than that. He is not only one of the best trainers out there but also one of the driving forces helping to grow not only Deka but the entire sport of Hybrid racing.

This episode of the NSCA Coaching Podcast features Nicole Fowler, the Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach at Phillips Exeter Academy. Fowler connects with the NSCA Coaching and Sport Science Staff, Eric McMahon and Kevin Gregory, about transitioning from collegiate coaching, at Merrimack University and the University of Denver, to now working in a high school. Learn what it means to be “unembarassable” in your coaching and how that helps your strength and conditioning program. The impact of the high school strength and conditioning coach extends far beyond weight room in this episode. Tune in to learn more about programming for high school student-athletes and training insights for youth during the pre-college formative years. Connect with Nicole on Instagram at @nicolesampson104 and @phillips_exeter_strength | Reach out to Eric and Kevin on Instagram at @ericmcmahoncscs and @coachgregorystrengthShow Notes“There's about 1,200 students that are on campus here with us. We have grades 9 through 12, but then students can come and join us as a post-graduate as well. The cool thing about Exeter is that it's an extremely diverse campus. We represent about 33 countries and the school itself offers over 450 courses.” 2:25 “I've tried to narrow it down to two things, but the athletes want to have control or elements of control, and they want to enjoy the process.” 10:20 “He said to be successful in this world you have to be unembarrassable, which is funny, because I didn't put that into perspective. And sometimes the kids are dancing and having a good time or whatever it is. And you have to kind be on board with it to a certain extent. Obviously you have your standards. But you have to enjoy it, because otherwise you're going to pull your hair out trying to get all these kids to do exactly what you want them to do.” 10:55 “But role within the community I think is something that I've really enjoyed in my two years that I've been here. I love to see the other side of whatever the campus is working on.” 23:05 “I was able to create systems at Merrimack and create systems at Denver, and I'm able to use those systems, but just figure out a creative way to make it work in my setting that I'm in. And I can honestly say that I'm having the most fun that I've ever had coaching, being in the setting that I'm in. And I feel like I'm making a really big impact.” 27:30

Digging deep into “Southern Bastards” with DC3Cast and Multiversity Editor Brian Salvatore; Best of 2017 with Multiversity’s Kevin Gregory. Images are at http://wp.me/p42KN3-HvT starting Tuesday 6 AM EST Welcome to the Comics Syllabus podcast, where we read widely and we dig deep. Your host Paul, a literacy researcher and English teacher, introduces curious readers to a range of current and classic comics, and then engages in closer discussion and analysis of particular comics works. On our Multiversity’s Best of 2017 chat ( at 5:00 ), we talk with Multiversity’s Kevin Gregory ( http://www.multiversitycomics.com/author/kgregory/ ), host of the new “Make Mine Multiversity” podcast ( http://www.multiversitycomics.com/tag/make-mine-multiversity/ ) covering Marvel Comics. But today, Kevin’s here to discuss his Best of 2017, in a series of chats the Comics Syllabus is having with Multiversity contributors about their picks for the best comics of the year in various categories. (Pardon some minor sound hiccups in the recording!) Kevin’s picks: Best Mini-Series: The Unstoppable Wasp by Whitley, Charretier, et al (Marvel) Best New Series: Super Sons by Tomasi, Jimenez, et al (DC) Best Single Issue: Deathstroke #11 (DC) by Priest, Cowan, et al ; Royal City #5 (Image) by Lemire; Black Monday Murders #5 (Image) by Hickman, Coker, et al Breakout Writer: Joshua Williamson Best Publisher: Valiant Comics Our deep dive this week (at 46:01 ) is “Southern Bastards” by Jason Aaron and Jason Latour, volumes 1 (“Here Was a Man”) and 2 (“Gridiron”), collected in the first hardcover, published by Image Comics. We’re excited to be joined by DC3Cast-member, Lead Editor, and dear friend Brian Salvatore to dig deep into this harrowing, poetic, and darkly tragic/comic tale of the South and football. Warning: the discussion calls for us to talk in mildly salty ways, at least saltier than Paul customarily does in front of children. But then again, this is “Southern Bastards.” Images to go with our talk are at the bottom of this page. We make reference to episodes of the podcasts the Hour Cosmic with the Jasons at http://www.multiversitycomics.com/podcasts/special-announcement-the-hour-cosmic-live-at-emerald-city-comicon/ and Chris Thompson’s Pop Culture Hound with them commentating “Southern Bastards” at http://www.multiversitycomics.com/podcasts/orbital-in-conversation-aaron-and-latour-on-southern-bastards/ so check those out. Finally, (at 2:21:12 ), we wrap with a quick “Discussion Section,” with a few notes from listeners and a few podcast and comics shout-outs. Some mentions: The Escapist Comics Podcast conversation with Jacob Semahn, writer of “No. 1 with a Bullet” (Image): https://art19.com/shows/the-escapist-comics-podcast/episodes/57e08862-49ca-4f59-bcde-cb25b38d4ef9 Michigan State University Comics and Graphic Novels Podcast: http://msucomics.libsyn.com/ Cartoon Art Museum in SF is back! https://www.cartoonart.org/ Subscribe and follow the Comics Syllabus podcast on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, or Soundcloud, or copy this RSS feed to your podcatcher: http://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/soundcloud:users:235183739/sounds.rss or you can find archives for this podcast (previously named “Study Comics with Paul”) here: http://studycomics.club/ Join the discussion on the Comics Syllabus Facebook page: http://facebook.com/ComicsSyllabus or Follow Paul on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TwoPlai or leave your comments here on the showpage.

Toughest Mudder Philly Recap! Toughest Mudder Philly was this past weekend. Trevor Cichosz and Allison Tai came away with the first place wins and 208 runners out of 717 (29%) qualified as contenders. Before we get into the Toughest Philly recap information Will talks about Ian Panter and the car accident he was in as he was leaving the Saturday morning Tough Mudder course. The local news station where Ian lives did a story on the accident and we listen to a clip from it. If you’d like to help Ian and his family with their medical expenses, a GoFundMe page has been set up. You can find a link to it at facebook.com/worldstoughestpod Kris Mendoza borrowed the World’s Toughest Microphone and talked to several people in Philly, pre-race. He spends some time talking with Trevor Cichosz, Lou Fisher, Stefanie Bishop, John Fagan, Jim “Da Goat” Campbell, Keith Allen, Joel Forsyth, and Melissa “Sharkbait” Dugan. Da Goat and Sharkbait are on this podcast as often as Will Hicks lately. As we start talking about Philly, we talk about the Philly results and stats, as well as discussing the Toughest Mudder series as a whole. Philly had 29% of the field qualify as contenders, Europe had 33%, Atlanta had 61%, and LA had 46%. Total contender numbers so far: 2,272 people have run Toughest Mudder. 885 have completed 25 miles. 39% have become contenders. Will then reads a few iTunes reviews (Have you left your review yet?) and reminds everyone how to enter to win a free pair of Merrell Agility Peak Flex trail running shoes from the World’s Toughest Podcast. If you want better odds, you can also win of a pair of the shoes from Amazon, but the entry fee is about $130. Once we go to the phones, we don’t come back. We have a conversation with Allison Tai, Kevin Given, Alex “Chikorita” Roudayna, Kevin “Bubbles” Gregory, Sara Knight, Jordan McDougal, and Stefanie Bishop. Allison Tai won first place at Toughest Philly. If you’d like to hear more from Allison, check out episode 17 of the World’s Toughest Podcast. Kevin Given ran Toughest Philly this weekend. You’ll recognize him on course in his straw cowboy hat. Chikorita won third place at Toughest Philly and has qualified as an Elite Contender three times. She will make some noise this year at World’s Toughest Mudder. Kevin Gregory has the nickname “Bubbles”. If you listen to his whole call with Will you’ll find out why. Sara Knight is one of two women (with Sharkbait) who have run every Toughest Mudder so far. She and Chad Trammell are the only two people to qualify as an Elite Contender in more than one country. Jordan McDougal won second place at Toughest Mudder Philly. He has a background in ultra-running. This is his first Toughest Mudder event. Stefanie Bishop is the reigning World’s Toughest Mudder. She needs no introduction. You introduce yourself to her. That’s not her job. This episode is almost two hours long. What do you think about that? Next time should we split it into two or three different episodes and put out a shorter episode each week? Or would you prefer to get as much information as you can, as soon as you can?
