Our thoughts about races, nutrition, training and all other things OCR.
Have you got your eyes on some Spartan races in 2022? Are you considering making the move to age group but you lack the confidence or knowledge of what it entails? We’ve put together a blog with some of the key differences between open and age group racing to help you decide if you're ready to make the jump!
This weeks Fit Friend Friday is RJ Cuares. A newer athlete to the OCR scene in South East Asia we’ve been lucky enough to personally see RJ’s strength and fitness improve in leaps and bounds during training sessions at Sean’s Spartan Bootcamps and at the race in the Philippines at the start of 2020. Despite COVID-19 de-railing everyones year RJ continues to improve and we know she’ll be completing her 2020 trifecta goal with very few burpee penalties!
This weeks Fit Friend Friday is focussed on local Spartan Pro Team member, actor, and all around great guy Tahir. Despite 2020 getting off to a disrupted start due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Tahir is staying positive and in shape, ready to race as soon as the Obstacle Course Race season starts up again later in the year.
We’re heading back over the pond for our Fit Friend Friday this week. Kata is based in Scotland in the UK and is an avid coach and athlete, taking part in Obstacle Course Racing for over 4 years! She has been incredibly supportive of Team Grit since the beginning and you can always find her smashing our WOTW, often claiming a podium spot. Read on to find out how Kata went from unprepared to podium spots. Despite the delay of the 2020 season (thanks Covid) we can’t wait to see her on the UK & Ireland race podium in person in the later half of the year.
