I've never been able to do Olympus, even when they had the wood surface a few years ago. That new plastic surface on Olympus, the Box and Stairway to Sparta is so slippery! I don't even try that obstacle anymore. I go straight for the penalty loop so I don't waste too much time. I'm so happy that they got rid of those f'ing burpees! Minute 22 is Beater, not Bender. Haha! I've gotten them mixed up before. There was seriously a 10' wall?!! DANG! You made it look easy! Nice work! I love your attitude, your motivation, your willingness to give advice to others and for thanking the volunteers (I have volunteered many times and it is much appreciated). Much respect for you Ultra athletes. Beast is my max, but next month I'm doing the Utah Trifecta.

Thank you very much for your feedback ! Same here, Olympus is unfortunately a lost cause... even building one would prove pointless since it would be made of wood. These events couldn't happen if it weren't for all the volunteers, I definitely try to thank them all on the way. I used to think like you that an Ultra was crazy, but on just my second ultra I got 1st place in my AG, it ain't that bad with proper training. Keep racing, and don't be afraid to try an ultra!

YES!!! Great video, and amazing performance out there. That ultra loop hill will be something I’ll never forget 😅. Well done on not only the podium but your ultrafecta!

That Ultra loop was BRUTAL!!! especially the uphill.

This is a solid video. It's awesome hearing the thoughts while yoir running. You fought hard and had very intense competition! Stairway was my first big cramp in my bedroom calf.

It was a battle with one guy for 35km worth of the race. He'd pass me on the ups, I'd pass him on the down lol

Awesome video John! I cant decide what impresses me more, your performance during the Ultra or the fact you also had a good showing the next day during the Super.
