A Blow To The Ego, But The Right Move

Today’s Spartan Beast Race

If I’m going to be honest with you, I have a bit of pride.

This is probably most apparent when it comes to physical achievements.

I’ve accomplished quite a bit over the years.

I achieved a second-degree black belt in martial arts before going to college.

l was a top Varsity Cross Country Runner on my team, with my best race being finished in under 16 minutes.

My Varsity Lacrosse Coach in high school didn’t care for my style of play, despite having been Team Captain of JV prior, so I did whatever I needed to get on an NCAA team and ended up as one of our top players.

However, most recently I have been focused on Spartan Races.

In 2019, I had my first race which was a required part of a certification I was working on, and I loved it.

It was an 8-mile Super race (They are shorter now), and I knew it was awesome!

I’ve been racing ever since!

I’ve completed multiple trifectas, as well as 2 Spartan Ultras (50k race with 60+ obstacles).

However, there was a big problem that occurred.
