David Hellard, host of the Bad Boy Running Podcast, joins me this week to discuss the OCR scene in Europe, the importance of OCRs finding a balance between accessibility and challenge as they grow, his recent win at the Somaliland Marathon, and the marathon mentality.

David starts by sharing how he got started in OCR and the creation of the British Military Fitness team, which leads us into a discussion about the evolution of OCR and the OCR scene in Europe and the UK. We discuss the importance of race brands finding a balance between accessibility for the general public and challenge for the competitive athletes, and how that affects the success of a race.

We then talk about this year's OCR World Championships, and how it's new location in the UK will affect the competition.

David also talks about his recent win at the Somaliland Marathon, and the difference between race mentality in marathons versus OCR. He shares why he prefers to run marathons, and we talk about the importance of having fun and enjoying yourself at races.

Lastly, we discuss The Bad Boy Running Podcast, and all the colorful terms born from it.
