Spartan didn't build much hype up around it, but the Spartan Pan American Championship was this weekend down in Mexico!
We invited Angel Quintero to be our guest on the show as the second place finisher in the 3K and the winner of the Beast the following day. There was a lot of talk about the lack of competition in Mexico but I wanted to have the chance to have Angel on the podcast to explain his thoughts on it!
We discuss his background in the sport, the races that meant the most to him over the years, his thoughts on the state of the sport now, hopes for the future of OCR, and of course his very successful weekend!
A huge thank you to Chriz Scherf for taking the time to be the translator for the interview!
