In this episode Heather talks to Joe DeSena, owner of Spartan Race. Joe shares some news with us that hasn’t been put out officially from Spartan Race yet.
Joe explains how and why they were selected to host the U.S. National OCR Championships in Florida. He shares additional details about what Spartan Race brings to the table for the race and what their plan is for the race. Unfortunately, he wouldn’t tell us who the Race Director or Course Designer will be, that information is being held Top Secret till the race in April.
We talk about his goal of getting OCR into the Olympics. I accidentally gave Joe the idea for scales for the bucket brigade, good luck everyone who will now have to be sure that they full their buckets past the holes.
Lastly, I ask Joe about Shirtgate and he had a pretty great answer. I didn’t expect the answer or the reveal that he had on the show. You will have to listen to the end to hear this one!
Evan Perperis sent us his book “Strength & Speed's Guide to Elite Obstacle Course Racing” to check out. We will read it and get back to you with some additional details. In the meantime, head on over to teamstrengthspeed.com and check out their new podcast or order the book.
