03/12/20 • 67 min

Welcome to the Legend of the Death Race Podcast, where you’ll hear the legends of past Death Racers, new and old.

In the eighteenth episode of the podcast, I connect with Chris Rice, an athlete for life who works on Wall Street as a technology professional. Chris has a lot of experience in the world of ultra-endurance sports, growing up as the military kid of a father who graduated from West Point Chris comes from a homelife where endurance is part of life. He competed in the Odyssey 24-Hour Adventure Race, some Ironmans, Badwater 135 Ultra, World's Toughest Mudder, and of course, the Death Race. Having competed in four Death Races, including the Winter Death Race, Team Death Race, and both Death Races before the "Final Death Race" and the resurrection of the Death Race in 2018, he has a lot of knowledge to share when it comes to overcoming life's obstacles.

Building Relationships & Hacking the Death Race - Clay Speakman & Anthony Sinopoli | LotDR Episode 019

Welcome to the Legend of the Death Race Podcast, where you’ll hear the legends of past Death Racers, new and old.

In the nineteenth episode of the podcast, we switched things up and brought together two Death Racers, Clay Speakman and Anthony Sinopoli, for a discussion on building relationships and hacking the Death Race. These two racers participated in the 2019 Death Race - The Journey, a throwback to the best Death Race challenges from years past. While this iteration of the Death Race was a team event, these two were not partners but still found themselves working together to conquer the obstacles thrown their way. Throughout the episode, these two provide insightful tidbits on how to skirt the gray areas of a race with no rulebook. In this episode you'll hear about how they dedicated their training to this event, sleep hacks, the importance of evaluating risk vs. reward -- in the race and in life, and the importance of knowing your weaknesses and putting the work in to strengthen them. Tune in to hear Clay and Anthony's legends.
