S07E13 - Spartan Blue Mountain

Jason crewed two guys (Brad Parnell and Patrick Bethoney) in running the 100 mile distance at the Blood Root Ultra, which takes place at the birthplace of Spartan on Joe de Sena's farm in Pittsfield, Vermont. The guys recap the experience on their drive out of the mountains.

Jason discusses the final race in the Spartan US - South National Series and the struggle of covering the race in the rain. You can watch the race coverage here: https://www.youtube.com/live/BYjcq0bDVcs?si=8UQdj0KkJKcwPCCD

I went to New York to run Citi Field. Myself and Tyler Movsessian rabbited the elites, and then I ran the course with Mike Stefano of ‪@obstaclerunningadventures6355‬ This particular race, since I only had two rabbits I did a full race edit with those two cameras and the five Mevo cameras that I put out around the course. I go into some detail about the editing process as I edited the whole race in a few hours. Check out the elite coverage here: https://www.youtube.com/live/JRfi-k5N...

I ran a 55k trail race in the Franklin Mountains, near El Paso, TX. I give a race recap and then talk about our OCR coverage plans for the year.
