Hey everyone, I'm back! I spoke with elite OCR athlete Javier Escobar this week all about his 100-mile outing at World's Toughest Mudder last fall, his training, and how he stays motivated.

We begin by talking about his 2019 WTM experience, and how it felt to reach 100 miles. He tells me about his progression from 35 miles at his first WTM to 100 miles at his latest.

He talks about how his training program has improved his performance, and the specific training and movements he's been working on.

Javier and I discuss how he stays motivated during this time, he tells me his least favorite thing to do during training, and we chat about our rivalry during Toughest Mudder West last year.

He then tells me about his experience running the UltraVirus 12 Hour Race, and he may or may not have convinced me to run the next one.
