from Obstacle Running Adventures · host Michael Stefano, Katelyn Ritter, Mark Haverland,

Katelyn sat down with Mark Haverland to talk about his unconventional journey into fitness and OCR.

Mark also shares details about upcoming events supporting the Teddy Bear Crawl Foundation and how you can get involved with a foundation that truly gives back to the local community  whether completing the Teddy Bear Challenge Wave at a variety of Spartan Races, attending the New England OCR Expo, or checking out Obstacle Wonderland!
