This weekend was New Jersey's Spartan Tri-State weekend! Mike inititally didn't recognize many of the names of the athletes on the podium from Saturday's Spartan Super but then realized that the first place finisher Chris Marrone was the winner of the Spartan 3K test event in Jacksonville! He was brought up during two recent interviews (our episode with Brett Milks on that test event as well as last episode with Adam Beach) so I had a feeling he would be someone we should have on the show! Hear about Chris's experience winning the Tri-State Spartan Super, his thoughts on the 3K format, other of his favorite races, and the changes that he has made in his life to pursue a name for himself as an OCR athlete! 0:00 – 3:40 – Intro 3:40 – 8:18 – Quick News 8:18 – 9:10 – Content Preface 9:10 - 48:41 - Chris Marrone Interview 48:41 - End – Outro Next episode Mike will be in Las Vegas for a wedding but we have an interview planned during the week to ensure we have an episode for you! ____ News Stories: Spartan Race's Go the Extra Mile Beetelite Replaced by SuperBeets Sport King of Chemo Faye Stenning on Good Day New York Rea Kolbl Sponsored by TheFeed Trans Woman Beats 14,000 Women in London Marathon Grit OCR Fang Podiums New Jersey Spartan Super Podiums: Men and Women Wall Secret Link Wanted Secret Link Availability Secret Link Huge Secret Link Book Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: 69.
