We talk with Jack Bauer about the results and how they stacked up to expectations. After we talk with Jack we talk with Heather Bode of the Overcome and Run podcast about the race. Heather ran on Saturday and Sunday and talks about the course, the venue, and the new obstacles Spartan is rolling out for 2019. We wrap up the episode with another chat with Jack about upcoming races. Just before this was recorded the news began leaking out that Tough Mudder would no longer pay prize money for their competitive races. Jack and Will give their first takes on the news, less than an hour after it was made known.
