The OCRWC Podcast OCRWC

Join us for this double whammy episode where we get not one, but two fan favorite athletes!



In this episode we are joined by Danes Ida & Leon, as we talk about OCREC 2024, Plans for 2024, and their new training programme, and how it works for everyone from the amateur to the pro athlete.

In this episode we are joined by Melissa Linden. As well as being a successful ocr and endurance athlete, Melissa has a goal in mind; making ocr more accessible and welcoming for women.



In 2023 women made up 31% of the racers, and we don’t believe this is enough.

We talk about the issues she and other women have faced, and the easy solutions that could be implemented by race brands to make a more welcoming environment for women.

Join Matt Willis & Francesca Chiorando as they talk about 9 years of The OCR World Championships, as we come up to the 10th Edition in 2024.



Matt Willis, a pro athlete and OCR Media personality, is one of the very few people (if not only) to have run not only every single OCRWC event, but also all of the NorAm Championships.



They talk over each year, the highs and lows, each location, and why OCRWC is the premium championship event out there.

Shell first took on OCR as a bucket list dream, and fell in love at first sight.



When her son Luccketta lost his best friend to suicide, she did the only thing she knew how to help him, and got him involved in Spartan Races. This lit something in him, and he realised that if all children had access to this sport, it might help them, and so Lionsheart Fitness was born.



Since then they have been serving the community and building the OCR community up with love, safety of being and physical strength, and they've never looked back.

As the Director of Video for the OCR Report, Jason Dupree has experienced a tonne of what can happen during a live stream of an OCR.



From fast paced sprints in Mexico, to 27 hours of World's Toughest Mudder, Jason has been there.



We talk about what it means to put on a successful live stream, what can go wrong, and what can go right.

In this episode we are joined by Elite OCR athlete Annie Dube.



We learn the importance of time, trial, and adapting when it comes to the success of an athlete. Whether pro, age group, or open anyone can learn from how Annie approaches an OCR!



We talk about her experiences in racing, her thoughts on the new Spartan Competitive format, and discuss the OCRWC 2024 location of Mammoth Lakes, and what changes to expect this year.
