The SPARTAN CRUISE is a deluxe Caribbean Cruise that featured a Private Island Race; the first in Island Spartan Race! Spartan founder Joe De Sena challenged the world’s best athletes to get on board with him and 1,000’s other Spartans for a truly special weekend adventure.
The Race is a Spartan Sprint distance and the first ever on a Private Caribbean Island. According to many of the athletes who attended, the 3+ Miles and 15+ Obstacles was fun and challenging, suited for all levels of Spartan racers; from first timers and veterans alike.
Check out the video that I edited for Coach Jay Flores, who provided the video footage for me since I was not able to attend. Coach Jay ended up placing in the TOP 20 Overall, and his footage was amazing!
Team Dynasty was founded in Tampa, FL in 2010. What started as a small Beachbody Coaching team of less than 5 people, has now grown rapidly to an amazing 35,000+ coaches in 2015, and growing more and more every single day. Team Dynasty (aka the Bombshell Dynasty) is part of a huge mission, which is to “Help End the Trend of Obesity” all over the world. Our family of coaches have many specialties and have helped hundreds of thousands of people change their own lives in only a few short years.
First Team Run - 2011
Then one day in the spring of 2011… a few members of the team decided to take it to the next level, and started taking the popular home fitness programs such as P90X, Shakeology, and Insanity to the real test. They were not only focused on looking good in front of the mirror, and feeling healthy on the inside, they wanted to test what they’ve trained so hard for. In a nutshell, they wanted to go PRIMAL and play outside, like our ancestors. This was the beginning and Team Dynasty OCR (Obstacle Course Race Team) was born.
Team Dynasty OCR was founded on the basis that we were all meant to be athletes, to not just look and feel good after finishing a workout or program, but to challenge ourselves, and to test our true overall fitness level with endurance specific sports such as Obstacle Course Racing (OCR). OCR is becoming the fastest-growing sport which invites all fitness levels from the couch potato to the extreme elite athlete.
Tampa Special Ops Spartan Sprint - 2015
Our mission is to continue to “Help End the Trend of Obesity” and also to introduce the world to the sport of Obstacle Course Racing. If we can make fitness fun, we know that more and more people will get involved. This is what Team Dynasty OCR is all about.

BattleFrog Series Miami - 2015 (Full Race Video below)
I had the opportunity to check out the BattleFrog Series Miami event on February 28th, 2015 and it was nothing short but amazing. I've heard a lot of my friends rave about how it was BETTER than Spartan Race, so I had to check it out myself.
There are a few things that I look into before considering to participate, or film a obstacle course race. Here are some things that I look for:
- How they market themselves, do they have a decent marketing budget, or is this a fly by night gig.
- Do they take care of their employees, and do they have a good field team in place.
- Are the obstacles quality, well built, and unique?
- Are the courses a good mix of running and obstacles, and are the obstacles fair to all athletes with all fitness levels
- Do they have a elite point system for elite athletes, and offer prize money or incentives
- Do they give back to the community, or are they "GREEDY"
Those are just some of the things that I am curious about before considering an obstacle race event. I not only want to make sure that the event is safe, but I also want to make sure that there are good people behind it. I've been involved with some shady people in the OCR industry, wealthy people who are just in it for the money, and not for the purpose of making a difference and giving back to the community. Oh yeah, I understand that it's a business =), but there are businesses based on integrity, and then there are the "other" ones that are just focused on one thing, to just take advantage of you.
I was definitely impressed by the BattleFrog Series Miami event, and I look forward to running and filming more of their events. If you are still on the fence about registering, all I have to say is just go for it, you will have a blast!
Here are some picture from the event. I also posted a video below, so feel free to check it out!

So here's the BIG QUESTION, is BattleFrog Series better than Spartan Race? My answer to this question is that I love both of them. Both Spartan Race and BattleFrog are great companies, and I will continue to support both of them. I am a big supporter of OCR in general, and I am focused on helping the sport grow through my OCRTUBE.com project which is a FREE OCR Community focused on connecting athletes worldwide, educating and training people to participate in global events.
