 “Exhaust life, don’t let it exhaust you.”

Javier Escobar, a high-level OCR athlete, made the World’s Toughest Mudder podium after running 100 miles (!) in just 24 hours. On top of his intense training, Javier has also worked at on the frontlines of the pandemic. Javier tells Sean how his first World’s Toughest Mudder was actually a drunk decision, his experience with electroshock therapy, how a motorcycle accident led him to meeting the love of his life and more.

PLUS–We get an updated on the 2021 Tough Mudder Season from CEO Kyle Mclaughlin.
