Spartan Radio — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 12:29:56 GMT

ATTENTION: We are moving off of Podomatic very soon. Please visit our new site at http://RadRacing.org for all the future podcasts and RSS feeds. Thanks - Jim Drinking game words? Boom or varations of such. (We recommend that you drink water, but any beverage will do, even adult ones if you’re of age!) First and foremost we had a great time on the Rock! Spartan Math: 2 days of rain + 1 creative Race Director + 4500 athletes = 1 sloppy, crazy, muddy rad race day! Over 4,500 athletes took it on September 24th. One of those runners was our special guest: Stephanie Vaughan, who took the top female spot! Stephanie, 28, with a background in skiing – Division 1 in college, arrived at Staten Island without her bag and found a pair of shoes in the discarded shoe pile that fit and those shoes helped her get a first place female finish! Some highlights: The Hurricane Heat again had over 150 participants, Hobie Call took the top spot again and we had Al Harrington and some Biggest Loser contestants come run and they did an amazing job! For a more indepth Staten Island Recap – Official Race Report can be found here. http://blog.spartanrace.com/staten-island-rocks-the-super-spartan/ Chicago Race is shaping up to be pretty bad ass. Yes, I said bad ass. We are having a NIGHT hurricane heat - http://blog.spartanrace.com/midwest-hurricane-heat-after-dark/. Anytime mandatory gear involves headlamps and light sticks you know it’s going to be awesome! There is a price increase in Chicago on October 1st, so get signed up now! Interesting note, our Race Director Mr. Mike Morris is flying out to the venue tonight to design the course & obstacles this week so get ready for some mayhem! Get registered HERE! Malibu! Spartan Race heads to the West Coast on November 19th and Heats are filling up fast! We had to move the 9 & 9:30 competitive heats to 8 & 8:30 just to accommodate more racers! We will have exciting new launches at this race as well…….stay tuned ; ) And there will be a Hurricane Heat so keep your eyes opened for registration! Register HERE! Texas cash prize emails went out this week! The cash prize heats will be selling out fast – top 10% were invited to compete for $10,000 for the first female and first male in the heat!

Race Director Mike Morris says, “Compared to some of our other courses, this is a relatively flat, but there are still some quick ups and downs, super-cool technical sections, river crossings, and big, Texas style obstacles. You will get wet, your lungs will burn, and you will have an awesome story to brag to your buddies about after finishing this course. Maurya’s Wimp to Spartan campaign is nearly complete when she toes the line in Staten Island. Check out her newest blog post where she talks about her journey and there’s video footage.

#11 Spartan Radio: Back in Black

Spartan Radio — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 01:48:11 GMT

After some off time, the ladies (and JIm) were back in action on Spartan Radio. The lovely and talented (and wicked fast) Margo the Great joined us for the show. We talked about the disaster in Vermont and the recovery efforts - including lots of ways you can help! We talked about PA, the fact that Spartan has rad gear, rad chicks, and 2012 season of bad assness! Maurya talked about her wimp to Spartan campaign courtesy of CrossFit South Brooklyn (Shane Williams is one cool dude) and we talked a lot about race day gear (NO COTTON). Carrie told bad jokes, Maurya played with her hair, Margaret gave good information and Jim just tried to stay sane.
