Love you Matt!
Just finished listening to the podcast on Spotify. Was at Red Deer running the trifecta in the open category so didn’t see any of this, but so disappointed to hear it. Course was fantastic, especially the Beast other than the fact Johnny can’t count (34-35 obstacles ended up being 43).
Biggest thing that kept coming to mind is this; are you permitted to jump the pits or do you have to go into the water? Argument from Spartan was that he didn’t get wet, so if some long legged jumper was able to clear each pit right up the middle would they be DQ’D?
Loved the episode.
