501. Spartan World Championships 2026! (Part 2: Saturday’s Wedding, Ceremony, and Interviews)

August 13, 2026

After we covered World’s Toughest Mudder we went to Paris to experience France for the first time! We then took a train to Geneva, Switzerland and drove down to cover the Spartan Ultra World Championship in Morzine, France!

This is part 2 of 2 for our coverage which is everything from Saturday! This features a wedding, the award ceremony, and athlete interviews. Some interviews were more difficult to conduct due to language barriers but I appreciate those who took the time to talk to us. That is the fun part of going to new countries but it makes it difficult when covering events as a podcast.

Hope you enjoy hearing about this amazing event and consider checking out one of the most beautiful Spartan Races there is!
