Obstacle Course Racing World Championships is the premier event in OCR every year. This year, OCRWC definitely did NOT disappoint!

Join MeggieBATC and Lynch_BMX_OCR as they recap all of the fun that was OCRWC 2022 in Stratton, Vermont.

Warning! This episode is not for the faint of heart. You know what you're signing up for when you sign up to race at OCRWC; you know what you're getting into when you start a Middle of the Pack episode. We love this sport, we love this community, and we want to see every athlete continue to grow and thrive within the realms of Obstacle Course Racing.

Walking away from an Ultra with a DNF can weigh heavily on an athlete. Regardless of if the DNF was due to mental or physical issues, leaving without a buckle can either drag you down or it can light a fire under you to come back stronger.

For Matthew Latawiec, his 2021 Killington Ultra DNF was a daily motivation to return to Vermont with a mission.

In today's Middle of the Pack Podcast, Matthew tells his story of battling back from an achilles tear, an ATV accident weeks before Killington, and ultimately a DNF to come back to the {Ultra} Beast of the East with one goal; to burn his 2021 Ultra Pinnie after jumping over that Killington Fire.
