When it comes to DEKA there’s one place that we like to go to focus on for coverage and it’s Underdog Fitness. There are a bunch of reasons for this: Mike was coached by Kevin Gregory for a while, it’s where we did our first DEKA, their athletes are frequently on the podium for DEKA World Championships every year, and they are some of our favorite people in the sport!
We went down Saturday night and brought Luci for her first hotel and race experience but as we talked about last episode she ended up getting high and hospitalized and Mike almost got arrested for speeding on the way home.
Things were a bit hectic with all that and there were many unintentional Irish Goodbyes but I think we did pretty well with an hour of interviews for coverage. Check out the names below!
Start – 5:05 – Intro
5:05 – 13:52 – Quick News
13:52 – 14:47 – Content Preface
14:47 – 1:16:30 – Interviews (Joe Rucco and Kelly Sullivan, Logan Goodman and Abby Giannobile, Robert Landman, Desmond Bernal and Erin Gutierrez, Pahola Nunez, Frank Tondora and Pete Burnham, Erin McGettigan, Larry Philips and Murielle Boyeah, Bruce Warner, Mike Lupo and Robert Perry, Emryck Tocabens and Logan Tocabens, Jessica Gregory, and Ms. Dora Avila from Muscular Puzzles Therapy)
1:16:30 – End – Outro
Next weekend will be hopefully being an interview to give attention to Newbsanity’s Mud Gauntlet that we didn’t end up making it to in person!
