Faces at the Races – Jack Bauer

I ran Division I track/cross-country at the University of New Hampshire but quit after being burnt out from years of 60+ mile weeks. I didn’t run a race for almost 2 years before getting the urge to compete again. I signed up for my first obstacle course race a couple years ago and was instantly hooked. At 6’1”, 185 lbs, I was always that runner who liked lifting, so OCR fits perfectly with my build. OCR has also allowed me to pursue my two biggest passions: fitness and traveling. I visited 24 states in 2015, and most of them were made possible because there are races all over the country.

Spartan Race kicked off its 2016 season in Southern California last weekend with back to back races at Vail Lake in Temecula.

This also left exposed a vast mud plain that was once the lake bottom and would play a role in the race.
