I had the opportunity to be part of media during the 30th SEA Games in the Philippines. The sport I was to cover was of course, Obstacle Course Racing! YES!!! =)
This might not mean a lot to some people, but as an obstacle racing enthusiast since the latter part of 2011, it was just amazing to see how far this sport has come. And it has grown so fast!

From actively racing in OCR from 2012-2014, and then converting to the media side of the industry in 2015, have been part of this sport for almost 8 years! Where I have seen people, athletes and friends go in and out of this sport, I have endured and continue to support obstacle course racing because it changed my life.
Filming the sport of OCR at the 30th SEA Games in the Philippines was very surreal. Although I am open to the sport of OCR to be either an olympic or sovereign activity, I will support it in any way because the bottom line is that, the sport is 100% responsible for getting people off the couch. What a great movement!
When I decide to participate in the P90X program back in 2011, it was the beginning of my fitness journey, and obstacle course racing was the ultimate test of fitness for me, the tip of the iceberg. P90X and OCR still to this day is my passion, and now being part of the media industry, I can help others follow down that path. How exciting!
