In this episode, 2019 Spartan North American Champion and chiropractor Ryan Woods talks about how and why he's transitioned from a track athlete and road racer to trail runner and elite OCR athlete. As someone who has performed at a high level for most of his life, Ryan shares tips he's learned along the way as he himself pivots toward a new phase of his career as an over 40 athlete.
We also talk about cats, which is definitely a first for Seasoned Athlete!
This interview was recorded last September at the Spartan Media Fest presented by ATP Science.
