Om episode

No recording by The Spaniard has included more laughter than this one. His camaraderie with Chris Spealler goes back to their being college wrestling teammates. They ran parallel tracks back then and later, when each followed a continuing hunger for competition. For Chris, this meant throwing down in the very first national CrossFit Games, and eventually six more. He and a partner opened the first CrossFit affiliate in Utah, and later Chris founded Icon Athlete, an online resource for all levels of CrossFit training. He even put on MMA gloves for a few bouts! (Sorta) That didn’t go well, but it takes nothing away from his insights on competing, negotiating phases of life and providing an example.
