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. We discuss what made him want to take on such a worldwide challenge, his training in the pistachio orchard, why he chose his fundraising attempts to benefit the Michael J Fox Foundation, the various 50Ks on each continent, and much more!

DEKA World Championships took place in Fort Lauderdale, FL this past weekend and while we focus on being an OCR podcast, this event has my interest every year! Since we didn't fly down to cover it in person (someday!), we looked for an athlete to have on the show to talk about their experience. It didn't take long to pick Brooklyn Nichols as our potential guest as she had an incredible race weekend being the first elite to win all events, especially in an increasingly stacked field! We talk about her background in sport and fitness, coaching, how she came across hybrid racing, her history with DEKA, her plans for the world championships, HYROX, and much more! We did not discuss the sled station in the DEKA STRONG because what matters is the end result and that Brooklyn had an incredible series of races. I am not an expert in the sport but that being said Dave Claxton is as the head official, and DEKA stands by their decision and I'm sure there will be other podcasts talking about the situation. Start – 4:40 – Intro 4:40 – 13:10 – Quick News 13:10 – 14:25 – Content Preface 14:25 – 1:07:46 - Brooklyn Nichols Interview 1:07:46 – End – Outro Next weekend we have our final regular episode of the year, hopefully on what was teased previously! ____ News Stories: Heather Gollnick on iFIT's Trainer Games New Baby Stroller Mile World Record Jacob Heppner's Dog 2025 Ragnar Immortal Medal DEKA World Championships Results Running Legend Secret Link Stunt Team Secret Link Best Birthday Secret Link Basketball Inclusion Secret Link Pup Cup Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 235.

We talked about the Taco Bell 50K in Colorado as a quick news story but then another one happened in Washington DC and I wanted to have someone on the show to talk about it! Carlo Piscitello noticed that MaryJane Osuji was taking on the challenge and suggested that she would be a good potential guest to talk about the experience.

Savage Race reportedly had their best turn out to a race in the past 5 years! The elite side had a pretty great turn out with an increased payout at the event and when I saw that Tyler Veerman won, I knew that I wanted to have him on the show again! We first met and interviewed him after he won the 15K at OCRWC, had dinner with him in Palmerton after the 3K, and have crossed paths with him at WTM a few times and he has always seemed like a nice guy. We talk about him living in Colorado, how his Savage race win went, what he thinks went wrong at the recent Spartan Super World Championships where he DNFed, progress made across consecutive Pike's Peak races, and much more!

We have been wanting to do another episode with Jason Dupree ever since he started carrying North American OCR and hybrid live streams on his back! We may be a bit bias because we have been friends with Jason for many years now but we don't believe he gets half of the credit that he deserves for what he does for both sports. We discuss how he started live streaming these sports, how much money we are making/losing from this pursuit, how you can help support the live stream, his rebranded OCR Tech Talk, getting ahead of burnout, a near death experience with a tree on the way back from covering Spartan Blue Mountain, and much more!

Rylan Schadegg was a beloved member of both the OCR and hybrid racing communities! Our paths had crossed numerous times during our coverage of obstacle course racing and he stood out as always being very kind and respectful. We were devastated to hear the news of his passing and we wanted to do something for those that loved him. We first had him on the show in September 2022 after winning the Spartan North American Championship but we had the chance to meet him and having him on the show in person at both OCRWC and the Spartan Palmerton 3K Series race. He had words during our first interview with him that have been echoing in my head since I heard of his loss so we figured that we would reair that interview.
