Josh, you’re not off-base. Many people I talk to agree with this sentiment in regards to Spartan races specifically. Maybe if they changed their penalty to something more enforceable . . . . but that won’t ever happen, as evidenced by Joe’s PR film at the beginning of the season.
Ultimately the public space is rife with cheaters, it just always makes me question the validity of podium finish times. And that’s a shame because there are those who really do put in the work and finish with no penalties, etc.
Love the OCR Discourse guys!
