We are very proud of the number of guests that we have had on the show over the years.  A big name in the sport of obstacle course racing that we hadn't gotten around to yet was Garfield Griffiths though! With the news of him no longer being a race director over at Spartan Race, effectively ending his 12 year old career of race directing for brands such as Battlefrog, Savage Race, OCRWC, and Spartan itself, we figured that it would be a good time to reach out and have him on! We talk about the changes that he has seen in the sport over the years, lessons learned in race directing, favorite race venues, his love for cigars and bacon, and how his position in the company has changed. We also discuss fun facts like him being the creator of Savage Race's "Wheel World" obstacle and what he wanted to call it, his history of spinning recorrds at the first ever Ultra EDM show, and how he started a Facebook group for dad jokes that now has 45 thousand members. 0:00 – 3:27 – Intro 3:27 – 4:58 – Quick News 4:58 – 5:37 – Content Preface 5:37 - 1:00:30 - Garfield Griffiths Interview 1:00:30 - End – Outro Next episode will hopefully be an athlete who we have had an eye on for months! ____ News Stories: Beer Mile Film Kickstarter Epic Volleyball Secret Link Easy Pushups Secret Link Funny Funeral Secret Link Honda Accord Secret Link Rainbow Waterfall Secret Link ____ Related Episodes: I Am A Spartan Podcast's Episode 154 with Garfield Griffiths!!
