There have been a bunch of shows in the last 10 years that have been about OCR and/or featured athletes from OCR. The first name that came to mind for this chapter is the living legend himself, Hunter McIntyre.

Hunter loves the camera, and the camera loves him back. He's the most outspoken athlete in the game, and he has the talent to back it up. He's been on more magazines and seen more airtime than anyone else in our industry. You could say he is our only true crossover star.

Hunter joined us to discuss Boundless, Steve Austin's Broken Skull, Spartan Ultimate Team Challenge, Million Dollar Mile, and The Spartan Games.

Once upon a time, Facebook was THE lifeblood of obstacle racing. It has been said the OCR is the sport that social media built. It started with posting your favorite fire jump pic. Then someone would comment they had done a race too, and asked if you would do the next one with them. Facebook groups are where we learned about cool gear to buy and new races to run. It's where we could find training groups and discount codes. Some of us still have the friends we made online to this day.

Let's talk to Paul Jones, who was an admin of one of the largest OCR groups from 2012-2018.

What if I told you that for a short time, Tough Mudder had a huge focus on elite racing and gave away more money than any other race company?

In 2017, TMHQ produced a timed morning wave, 8-hour overnight events, and Tough Mudder X, which they called "The Toughest Mile on the planet". All these events had cash prizes and broadcast deals. Here are snippets from press releases at that time.

..."Tough Mudder, the active lifestyle and media brand, has partnered with Facebook to deliver original, live event sports and fitness programming on Watch, Facebook’s new platform for shows. Facebook will be the exclusive video platform for the new $50,000 Tougher Mudder Championship race series and Weekly Tough Mudder Bootcamp fitness studio classes"

..."The deal features the launch of the new sports event, Tough Mudder X, named “The Ultimate Race to Determine the Fittest and the Fastest Athletes in the World.” With the new agreement, all Tough Mudder television programming – Tough Mudder X, America’s Toughest Mudder, and World’s Toughest Mudder – will now debut on CBS. Encore presentations of the shows will air on CBS Sports Network in prime time"

Like many other chapters in our book, the events were here, they were awesome, and then they were gone. The OCR Stat Guru, Jack Bauer himself, joins us for this one.
