Conquer The Gauntlet Pro athletes have been featured in lots of Obstacle Course Racing digital articles.  They appear almost weekly on the largest most comprehensive and best OCR news website in the world Mud Run Guide.  Plus, they even reach outside the OCR circle appearing on news websites and non-OCR fitness related websites.  The actual list is too comprehensive to collect all of them, but here is a sampling.
