444. World's Toughest Mudder 2025! (Part 2: Event Day Audio, Interviews, and Katelyn's Pit Audio) 07 juil. 2025 03:47:43 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!

441. World's Toughest Mudder in UK Prep with Wil Chung and Fran Chiorando! 16 juin 2025 01:35:00 World's Toughest Mudder is almost upon us ... which is a very strange thing to say in June since it has always been in either December or November!
I met Wil Chung last year at WTM and discussed having him on the show to talk about the venue of Belvoir Castle since he has had a lot of experience there as a prominent member of the European TM community! I also wanted to have Fran Chiorando on as well since she lives with an American and is hyper aware of cultural differences and knows about my interest in trying new snacks!
We talk about cultural differences, some slang, travel tips, touristy things to do, food and snacks to try, obstacle differences , updates in the recently distributed information pack , and some information about this year’s venue, Belvoir Castle !
Start – 2:22 – Intro
2:22 – 5:40 – Quick News

440. Chainsaw Rick on Hildervat, Lionhearts Fitness, Cancer, and More! 10 juin 2025 01:35:34 We have heard about "Chainsaw Rick " for years but our paths had never crossed before with him mainly racing down south and us primarily running and covering the north. Between him dominating Hildervat podiums and his recent cancer diagnosis , we figured that we should go out of our way to change that!
We discuss the reason for his nickname, how he found the sport of OCR, his favorite moments in the sport, how Hildervat has changed over the years, his support of Lionhearts Fitness and the importance of their work, how he is handling his cancer diagnosis and much more!
If you're in the area, consider checking out the Hildervat weekend being done in his honor on June 14th and 15th and/or support the fundraiser for Rick's medical bills which was put together by Shell Luccketta !

439. OCR Podcast Eulogy: Remembering the Dead Podcasts of Our Sport! 02 juin 2025 01:10:05 We have done OCR eulogy episodes in the past but never a eulogy episode on OCR podcasts!
Mike used his first hand experience, Podchaser , and his own podcast app to find as many podcasts as he could find whether dead or alive. He compiled the show names, descriptions, hosts, how many episodes released, date range of the show, and personal thoughts and experiences where applicable!
There are well over 50 OCR podcasts discussed but apologies if we missed some. We are a 2 person team and this took a pretty decent amount of time to put together. See the shows mentioned in the time stamps below!

438. World's Toughest Mudder First Timer Questions with Josh Fiore! 28 mai 2025 01:24:36 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!

437. Sabrina Buhagiar on the Spartan US National Series and Preparing for Spartan Ultra and Trifecta World Championships! 19 mai 2025 00:42:23 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!

435. Joe Rucco on Hybrid Racing, Winning Toughest Mudder Atlanta, and More! 06 mai 2025 01:07:10 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!

434. Mike's First DNF and reRUN of 17. Tri-State Spartan Ultra Beast and Tri-State Spartan Beast! 30 avr. 2025 01:24:12 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. Tri-State Spartan Ultra Beast and Tri-State Spartan Beast!
1:18:56 – End – Outro
Next weekend we will either have an interview related to a book or we will reach out to an athlete to hear about their experience at many of the events happening around the world now that the OCR season is in full swing!

Due to this we are releasing our third reRUN rerelease episode on the first April Fool's episode that we ever released. The first half is actual coverage of an event that is unfortunately no longer around but you'll know the April Fool's part when you get to it ... or maybe not! This fooled a few people back when it was released on April 1st 2019!

429. Bermuda Triple Challenge with Michael Kantor and Shannon Woodill! 25 mars 2025 01:01:19 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!
Start – 3:13 – Intro

428. "Sober Up: Spartan Style" with Author Tara Pipia, Ph.D.! 17 mars 2025 01:14:38 "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!

422. reRun of 4. Blizzard Blast with Fred Smith! 04 févr. 2025 00:46:43 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!

408. Jack Goras on Photography, Travels, OCR Thoughts, Helping in Ukraine, and More! 29 oct. 2024 01:07:12 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!

407. Mike Reclaims Title of Ultra Runner at Survival of the FITtest 12 Hour Trail! 21 oct. 2024 00:54:26 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!
Next week we plan to get back to something more interesting but I hope you enjoy this anyway!

Instead we finally had Kevin "The Mudman" LaPlatney , on the show who has been in the sport since 2010 and has seen a lot of events come and go during his time living on Long Island. He owned Obstacle Athletics which was a well known OCR gym in the area for many years, and continues to be a prominent member in the northeast OCR community. We discuss his favorite events over the years, his love of ultras, being a dad, his thoughts on the changes in the sport, the fact that OCR is not dead yet, and more!

Yaris as an athlete is known to be a force to be wreckoned with whether it be OCR, ninja, or even hybrid racing. We discuss her background in sport before finding OCR (or lack thereof), the importance of mental health as an athlete, how her position as the vice president of Puerto Rico OCR Association has changed her perspective on the sport, her thoughts on World Obstacle's OCR World Championships in Costa Rica , and much much more!
Also, in a time where many North American races are having their final events, there are some new ones just getting started! Race Ready Obstacles has been building obstacles for races and selling quality training equiptment to people for years. This year they hosted their first obstacle course themselves, MidWest OCR and Yaris took the gold!

Josh has been involved with OCR in the northeast for well over a decade as a weekend warrior, volunteer, motivational speaker, and as an elite. He has been on the show 7 times previous to this (episodes 114 , 194 , 328 , 358 , 360 , 382 , and 401 ) due to seeing him at Spartan Greek Peak , Kismet Cliff Run , FIT Challenge , World's Toughest Mudder , New England OCR Expo , and BoldrDash !
This time however, we focus on his background of finding the sport of obstacle course racing, life changes he needed to make in order to compete as an elite, his thoughts on local OCR, how the Spartan Killington Ultra went, unfinished business at World's Toughest Mudder, and much more!

401. The Final BoldrDash with Racers, and Lynn Hall! 09 sept. 2024 01:30:49 There were some big events that happened this weekend with Tough Mudder Infinity in Pittsburg , the final Conquer the Gauntlet under the Mainprize ownership , the first of the Savage Point Series races in Maryland , and the Spartan European Championships , but we covered the final BoldrDash OCR in Exeter, RI!
BoldrDash as a race series had a huge role to play in our overall OCR history! It was Mike's 9th ever OCR, and Katelyn's 7th ever OCR back on May 3rd 2014 (video here) . We have also volunteered more at this race than any other, whether it was Mike waking up really early to volunteer all day at an obstacle, or helping people through the course with the Find Your Bold/all abilities team!
While it didn't have the huge reputation around the country or even world like FIT Challenge had with the annual community awards , it was still an integral aspect of local OCR in New England! Lynn Hall started these events back in 2011, has put on events at incredible venues such as beaches, ski hills, and former amusement park land, before settling at a permanent course at Canonicus the past few years. We wish Lynn the best in what she continues to do with Find Your Bold !
Lastly, if you have information as to the spelling or last name of the guests in this episode, we would appreciate it.

399. Winning Toughest Mudder Chicago with Jenny Overstreet! 27 août 2024 01:06:46 Lots of events happened this weekend so it was difficult to figure out which event to focus on and which particular athlete to have on the show. I try not to have the same guest on for their own episode too many times, one of the big events had a lot of issues and I'd want to have more of the dust settle before we consider having an athlete on to talk about it.
Then Mike saw that Jenny Overstreet won Toughest Mudder Chicago! He first met her at the end of OCR America 2 during the KC Timber Challenge coverage. He was severely sleep deprived from a full week of traveling across the country doing OCR so he has limited memories of that day but it definitely happened!
Jenny is an athlete from the midwest who is known to be a formidable ultra OCR athlete from previous Toughest and World Toughest Mudders so we were excited to have her on the show for her own episode. Be sure to check out the MudGear Hannibal Race Pro Team that she is a part of as well as her gym RoKC !

398. New England Spartan Super, Sprint, and Teddy Bear Crawl! 19 août 2024 01:20:25 The New England Spartan Super and Sprint weekend came back to Barre, MA and it felt good to be back! Most are pretty familiar with the ~10K Super and the ~5K Sprint so those don't need too much description.
In addition to taking on both of these events though, we also completed the Teddy Bear Crawl which is a 7am wave where adults crawl the kids course to earn a kids medal and kids could bear crawl it to earn a Sprint medal! This event is free but it is recommended to make a donation in order to help purchase teddy bears for kiddos in a local hospital!
Mike was able to talk to 25 different people on the mic and countless people off the mic across these 3 events. These people ranging from elite athletes, weekend warriors, as well as vendors. See specific people and brands in the time stamps below!

397. OCR in the US Midwest with Evan Perperis! 13 août 2024 01:10:01 After Evan Perperis interviewed Mike to talk about OCR in the Northeast on Strength and Speed (listen to episode here ), Mike pulled an uno reverse and asked Evan to come on our show!
We have heard of some events that take place in the center of the country but to have a much better idea of the state of the sport in that region it takes someone more local to the area. With Evan living there for the majority of his OCR career, he was the perfect guest to talk about these events. We discuss 29 different events that are either still being put on today or left an impact in the time that they were still functional!
The events discussed were: Mythic Race , Hazelwood OCR , KC Timber Challenge , The Seige , Muddy Water OCR , Filthy Monkey , Wildwood Aventure Park , Witchita Gladiator Dash , Muddy Hutch , Conquer The Gauntlet , T.H.O.R. Texomas Hellacious Obstacle Race , Gladiator Assault Challenge , Frontline OCR , Midwest OCR , Spartan Race , Warrior Dash , Atlas Race , BattleFrog , Battle Of The Lions , Hammer Race , Big Red Challenge , Dirt Runner , Terrain Race , Green Beret Challenge , Fugitive Run , Battlegrounds (Iowa) , Primal Assault , Gorilla Dash , and City Challenge
