A couple episodes ago during quick news we mentioned the GoFundMe to help lessen the financial impact of Kris Rugloski participating in a endurance horse race in Mongolia! We followed along with her multi-day adventure from her Instagram stories and Mike reached out about potentially having her on the show to talk about the Mongol Derby as well as some other big life changes! We discuss some life changes like earning her degree, ending a long term babysitting job, and getting engaged as well as her background with horses, her adventure in Mongolia, her upcoming move, and much more! Be sure to follow her on social media and consider supporting the GoFundMe because it looks like it is still up!

After we covered World's Toughest Mudder we went to Paris to experience France for the first time! We then took a train to Geneva, Switzerland and drove down to cover the Spartan Ultra World Championship in Morzine, France! This is part 2 of 2 for our coverage which is everything from Saturday! This features a wedding, the award ceremony, and athlete interviews. Some interviews were more difficult to conduct due to language barriers but I appreciate those who took the time to talk to us. That is the fun part of going to new countries but it makes it difficult when covering events as a podcast. Hope you enjoy hearing about this amazing event and consider checking out one of the most beautiful Spartan Races there is!

Some interviews were more difficult to conduct due to language barriers. That is the fun part of going to new countries but it makes it difficult when covering it as a podcast. Due to this, there is a lot of announcer audio in both English and French in addition to our interviews! Hope you enjoy hearing about this amazing event and consider checking out one of the most beautiful Spartan Races there is! Translation of Mike (M) and Gregory (G) Basilico's Interview: M: How did your race go today? G: It's my first Ultra, it was in a world championship. I was starting a bit in the unknown because I didn't know how to manage this type of race. The gap increased as the race went on. I really had a lot of difficulties on the second lap but I surged far far far away at the mental level and said let's do our best and I think that today it's my mind that made the difference to go and get this beautiful victory. I was really really really looking forward to this and I think that today it's my mind that made the difference to go and get this great victory with the first World Championship title and the 6th overall title M: How does it feel to take 1st, 2nd, and 3rd as French athletes in your country G: Well I am really happy that we can do a triplet. Especially since it has been two years since the Italian Luca Pescullderungg won. At least now we are putting things back in place. We are in France, three frenchmen. M: You're no stranger to World Championships, how does it feel to win the ultra? G: What it is, is an accomplishment. It is a lot of effort and a lot of work. Translation of Mike (M) and Jonathan (J) Garcia's Interview: M: How did your race go today? J: Very good, I finished third so I am very happy, in addition my French compatriots who were much stronger today, very happy with the race. M: How does it feel to take a podium on a big stage? J: It was the first time I have had a hard time doing it, and I wanted to but I wasn't mentally ready but I am happy M: Total sweep from France on the podium, how does it feel to have that in your country? J: Yeah, that is it, great! It is our home and we are on the podium, very great so we will enjoy it now M: What did you think about the course with the obstacles today? J: I found it a little easier than the other years. Maybe I was more fit but it felt easier. I just missed the multirig twice but otherwise everything went well M: What is next for you for the rest of the year? J: Other European Championships, and maybe the Trifecta World Championship at Sparta Start – 5:34 – Intro 5:34 – 13:12 – Quick News 13:12 – 14:08 – Content Preface 14:08 – 20:26 - Start Line Audio 20:26 – 1:11:20 - Finish Line Audio and Interviews 1:11:20 – End – Outro Next weekend we will be celebrating 500 episodes! ____ News Stories: Badass of the Week: Nathan Lambert Nicodemus Injury Support Group Spartan Elite License Beer Mile Road World Record Boston Marathon Qualifier Selection Alisa Petrova and Sergei Perelygin 3 Year Anniversary Josh Fiore Moves to Florida Spartan Series Races ARE Included in Spartan Season Passes Help Kris Rugloski Race Across Mongolia GoFundMe Neighborhood Ninjas Community Build Day DEKA FIT Boston Podiums DEKA FIT Manchester Podiums Two Face Secret Link Dance Battle Secret Link Falling Drink Secret Link Gay Brother Secret Link Chocolate Bike Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 393.

Alan and Wil are back with a deep dive into the World's Toughest Mudder 2026 course preview, breaking down the AI‑modified map, new puzzle pieces, and what's changed around markers 17 and 18. They chat through terrain details, obstacles, and the quirks of editing maps that seem to have a mind of their own — plus a few laughs about Gemini's mapping tool and its creative numbering.

We were on vacation in Colorado busy exploring Denver, Colorado Springs, and Manitou Springs and didn't have time for an interview. Instead, Mike and Katelyn do a post race and pre race discussion for New York Hyrox and World's Toughest Mudder respectively! Mike wasn't content with last week's episode in that he didn't get to talk much about his first Hyrox experience after the event and didn't want it tied to premium Patreon content as was teased in the post credit audio of that episode. We also thought that it would be interesting to revisit the same pre-World's Toughest Mudder questions that were asked before Katelyn's first WTM last year!

It's the ultimate reminder of what makes WTM special: grit, community, and a whole lot of mud. *This episode was originally recorded in June 2025 but as it has tips galore in we thought we would share again

DJ joined us 300 episodes ago after winning World's Toughest Mudder. Fast forward 3 years and he just crossed the finish line of the Cocodona 250 in third place. From OCR athlete to big time Ultra runner, he has embodied the idea of staying the course.
When it comes to DEKA there's one place that we like to go to focus on for coverage and it's Underdog Fitness. There are a bunch of reasons for this: Mike was coached by Kevin for a while, it's where we did our first DEKA, their athletes are frequently on the podium for DEKA World Championships every year, and they are some of our favorite people in the sport! We went down Saturday night and brought Luci for her first hotel and race experience but as we talked about last episode she ended up getting high and hospitalized and Mike almost got arrested for speeding on the way home. Things were a bit hectic with all that and there were many unintentional Irish Goodbyes but I think we did pretty well with an hour of interviews for coverage. Check out the names below! Start – 5:05 – Intro 5:05 – 13:52 – Quick News 13:52 – 14:47 – Content Preface 14:47 – 1:16:30 - Interviews (Joe Rucco and Kelly Sullivan, Logan Goodman and Abby Giannobile, Robert Landman, Desmond Bernal and Erin Gutierrez, Palin Nunez?, Frank Tondora and Pete Burnham, Erin McGettigan, Larry Philips and Murielle Boyeah, Bruce Warner, Mike Lupo and Robert Perry, Emryck Tocabens and Logan Tocabens, Jessica Gregory, Ms. Dora Avila) 1:16:30 – End – Outro Next weekend we will be hopefully being an interview to give attention to Newbsanity's Mud Gauntlet that we didn't end up making it to in person! ____ News Stories: WTM Orphan Tent Needs Help Emma Cook Clarke Wins Skyrace Ulrikke Evensen Short Trail Champion DJ Fox Finishes 3rd at Cocodona 250 Spartan South USNS Final Leaderboard Underdog Fitness Hyrox Engine 80 Podiums Underdog DEKA Results Newbsanity's Mud Gauntlet Podiums Thai Ad Secret Link Wife Greeting Secret Link Epic Leader Secret Link Sauna Rave Secret Link Fireworks Barge Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 235.

Thank you!He went from 210 pounds to 150 pounds in a hospital bed, saw a Cameron Hanes Instagram post, and decided to become an endurance athlete. He has since won the World's Toughest Mudder, DNF'd a Colorado Trail FKT attempt at mile 420 with pneumonia, came back and broke the record anyway, and showed up to Cocodona 250 last year as a relative unknown and finished 7th overall.In this episode of Flagstaff Bound, Kevin and Peter sit down with DJ Fox, who is back for 2026 with one goal — to be the first person across the finish line in Flagstaff. He breaks down exactly what went wrong last year: 17 hours of shuffling on dead legs through 40 miles because he missed his sleep window, watching Edher and Finn and Harry and Mike and Cody and Max all pass him, then waking up from a 90-minute nap and running those last 40 miles faster than anyone else on the course. He knows what he left out there. He spent this year actually learning how to run.He also wants us to draw him a gauge on the chalkboard at Mingus. A tiny sliver of green in the middle. On one side, being an idiot. On the other, being something less than that. He wants to live in the sliver.His caffeine consumption in the final 40 miles of last year was approximately 1,500 milligrams. He is not concerned about this.Cocodona 250 kicks off Monday, May 4th at 5 AM Pacific. Follow the action live on the Mountain Outpost YouTube channel.

Alan and Michelle Carney break down the revamped Endurance League scoring system, from bonus points at World's Toughest Mudder to new age group categories and strategic race picks.
Matt sits down with Kaʻeo Kruse from Stryd to break down how running data can improve HYROX performance. Later, Alaskan athletes Chad Trammell and Lars Arneson join the show to talk about their impressive Pro Doubles debut at HYROX Phoenix. Topics Kaʻeo Kruse (Stryd) • Hawaii → Harvard → UVA running career • Training with USA Triathlon in Boulder • Understanding running power and pacing • Matt's HYROX Phoenix data breakdown • Cadence vs stride length • Efficiency and avoiding anaerobic spikes Chad Trammell & Lars Arneson • Chad winning World's Toughest Mudder • Lars' Nordic skiing background • Training for HYROX in Anchorage • Fourth place in HYROX Phoenix Pro Doubles • Race strategy and pacing • Why lunges and wall balls cost them time Summary First up, Matt talks with Kaʻeo Kruse from Stryd about how running data can help HYROX athletes race smarter. Kruse explains his background as a runner at Harvard and UVA before transitioning to triathlon and training with USA Triathlon in Boulder. Using Matt's race at HYROX Phoenix as a case study, they break down pacing, cadence, stride length, and running power. The data showed how maintaining consistent effort led to a five-minute improvement and why even small efficiency gains can make a big difference in HYROX racing. In the second half of the episode, Matt catches up with Chad Trammell and Lars Arneson from Anchorage, Alaska. Trammell reflects on winning World's Toughest Mudder and the early days of obstacle racing, while Arneson talks about his background as a Nordic skier and mountain runner. The pair recently finished fourth in Pro Doubles at HYROX Phoenix with a time of 50:41, despite only doing a handful of strength workouts together. They break down their race strategy, where they lost time, and whether they'll pursue the Elite 15 Doubles races moving forward.

Somehow we have never had Sarah Tucker on the show, this week we remedy that! Our paths crossed with Sarah at World's Toughest Mudder in both 2023 as well as 2024 but she inadvertently dodged the mic at both events. She joined the MudGear Hannibal Race Pro Team and has been doing very well with elite events in the US! More recently she took 2nd place at the Abominable Snow Race in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin! This is an event that we have been wanting to go to for a while and do live coverage to highlight. We didn't make it out this year so maybe next year!

In this episode of Never Stumped - The Adaptive OCR Podcast, host Jamie Gane and Dawn Jolleys discuss the competitive landscape for adaptive athletes at World's Toughest Mudder (WTM) and the lack of podium recognition. The adaptive movement is "definitely growing", and this episode addresses the possibility of adding a competitive element for adaptive athletes at WTM. Jamie Gane, a World Obstacle adaptive race director, outlines a two-system approach for WTM: a non-competitive system for personal challenges and maximum mileage, and a competitive system for classified athletes only. Please take 2 mins to complete our survey and let us know whta you think about podiums for adptive athletes at Worlds Toughest Mudder https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfp2HiH1p11P5LFIzsJ1heEGe-iZy-usjLhY6GE0IunMvSVNA/viewform?usp=header 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.
Alan and Ian share holiday updates, from alcohol-free beers to quiet Christmases, before diving into the big stuff: World's Toughest Mudder 2026 rule changes. From "Morning Glory" obstacle penalties to the "Weight to Go", they unpack the impact on race strategy, fairness, and athlete fatigue. Alan previews a special episode of Never Stumped on adaptive athlete podiums, while Ian praises Hyrox for leading the way in inclusivity. They also tackle the upcoming vote to dissolve World Obstacle, raise eyebrows at USA Pentathlon's use of "Ninja Warrior," and mourn the loss of Transworld Sport — a show that shaped generations of sports fans. The episode rounds out with marathon debates, gear gripes (especially for female athletes), and a reminder to grab your tickets for the UKOCR Awards before they're gone.

A couple episodes ago we mentioned how Christian Brown-Johnson successfully achieved the World Record for fastest cumulative 50Ks on all 7 continents in 7 days! Before that, when he was on the show back in February to talk about Hannibal Race he hinted to this challenge.

I had a few things planned that didn't work out yet but I went through my episode plans and bumped a future episode idea up earlier. I have wanted to have Jeff Moulton on the show for his own episode because our paths have crossed at the New England OCR Expo, WTM, and Spartan New Jersey Ultra! He seems like a great guy and I wanted to learn more about him, his history of body building, and hear about his performance training. When he became the owner of a gym in Connecticut it gave us all the more reason to have him on the show to hear how things are going with his big change!

Giles Chater from TMHQ talks about key learnings from WTM. Just kidding, key learnings is a term used by wankers. We did talk about what worked, what didn't, and what might change for future UK World's Toughest Mudders. Plus Wil Chung and Jason Rulo and I reflect back on our feelings of this year's event, what we think they nailed and what needs improvement. Jason also has a great write up on this year's event - https://obstacleracingmedia.com/ocr-news/what-does-winning-look-like/ Use code ORM25 for all 2025 Spartan Race, Spartain Trail, and Tough Mudder races for a 20 percent discount.

World's Toughest Mudder has found a great home at Belvoir Castle and as many of you know, this was Katelyn's first time running it! Episodes with lap by lap pit audio have been a listener favorite feature for the past 8 1/2 years of the show (WTM 2017, 2018, 2019, Ode to Laz, etc.) and as soon as Katelyn registered for this in November, I knew that we would do it again! In addition to the audio of her experience I also did some interviews with athletes before the race as well as interviews with almost every volunteer on course and some athletes out on course in the middle of the night (1:30am-6am) helping, walking, or running!
