What’s up Crew,

With World’s Toughest Mudder about 6 weeks out, the internet is doing what it always does:

Overanalyzing everything.

Gear lists.
Lap plans.
Sleep schedules.

But if you’ve been around OCR long enough, you know the truth:

Most people don’t fail WTM because they weren’t prepared…

They fail because they made a few very predictable mistakes.

Let’s touch on 5 big ones.

Performance fuel that actually makes sense for OCR.

If you’ve ever fumbled a gel mid race… yeah, this fixes that.

Your body will thank you.

This is the classic.

Adrenaline is high, music is pumping, and suddenly your “easy pace” turns into race pace.

Feels great… for 2 or 3 laps.

Then it hits:

The people who last, treat the first few hours like a warm-up.

If it doesn’t feel almost too easy, you’re doing it wrong.

This one kills races quietly.

You come in thinking:
“I’ll just warm up for a minute.”

Then:

Next thing you know… 25 minutes gone.

Multiply that by a few laps and your race is basically over.

👉 Strong WTM racers are efficient, not comfortable.

This is where Reddit is full of horror stories:

One of the biggest?

Wetsuits.

People either:

Remember guys: You should bring a wetsuit to WTM. And you should probably put it on a little before you feel like you need it.

Another sneaky race killer.

People either:

By the time you realize it, it’s too late.

Energy crashes hard around the overnight hours.

Remember the Simple rule guys: eat before you need it.
Even when you don’t feel like it.

This might be the biggest one.

You come into the pit tired, cold, maybe a little beat up.

And you think:
“I’ll go back out when I feel better.”

That moment almost never comes.

The longer you sit, the harder it is to restart.

WTM is about going back out when you don’t feel ready.

That’s the whole game guys.

Everyone obsesses over the perfect setup.

But the people who do well?

They:

It’s not flashy.

It’s just tough.

Heading out to WTM this year?

Couple Weeks Back - I talked with Joe Rucco and his awesome performance at the New Jersey Ultra, and he mentioned taking the Neversecond gels and how he was a big fan of them.
