Description
Mike has been aware of the Wason Pond Pounder for many years and we registered for their final event (planned for 2020) back in 2019! Of course 2020 was a rough year for events to say the least and their event was postponed again in 2021 due to picking dates that would have been difficult for attendance (one of them overlapping with OCRWC I believe). The final event finally happened though! We woke at 6:30am to make the trip up to New Hampshire to check out this small local OCR. We were not disappointed since the course was very well laid out, fun, and had some great obstacles for beginners to the sport! We interviewed a few people in the festival area, the top finishers, a woman that we helped through the course, and then finish up with an event recap! 0:00 - 3:24 - Intro 3:24 - 18:00 - Quick News 18:00 - 19:27 - Content Preface 19:27 - 28:10 - Fire Chief and Race Director David Veale Interviews 28:10 - 38:20 - Top Finisher Interviews 38:20 - 43:39 - Team Supendous and Derti Development Interviews 43:39 - 47:26 - Interview with Wendy and Mike and Katelyn Race Recap 47:26 - End - Outro ____ News Stories: Wall Street Journal Spartan Race "Cash Crunch" Savage Race Response to WSJ Article FIT Challenge Response to WSJ Article Brooklyn Half Marathon Death City Challenge Jersey City Podiums Nature Race Podiums Nuclear Race Podiums Spartan Toronto Sprint Podiums Spartan Toronto Super Podiums Spartan Nationals Park Stadium Podiums Toughest Mudder Philly Podiums Savage Race Maryland Podiums Savage Pro Series Leaderboards Accurate Secret Link Confusion Secret Link Alexa Secret Link Birthday Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 109.
