McCauley Kraker (Mac) grew up in an athletic family. He would go on to become a collegiate runner with some success. Then he decided running wasn’t for him and spent a lot of time on the couch. Eventually, his older brother Brakken (who had been tearing it up on the OCR circuit) convinced Mac to try a Spartan with him. He finished 4th despite having not run for a year. He has picked up the pace and was recently named to the Spartan Stadium Pro Team.
Listen in to learn more about his McCauley’s journey which includes his days as part of a Midwest blackjack card counting crew, and his recent trip to to the Middle East for the first ever Spartan Race in Dubai.
