Driven (formerly Green Beret Challenge) is one of the few multi-state Obstacle Course Racing (OCR) series still holding events this year. Evan sits down to talk with former Army Ranger and Greet Beret Mark Ballas about the re-branding, the history of his race series, the origin of F**K BALLAS and how they build better humans. Plus, Mark shares some of his thoughts on why some soldiers make it through Special Forces training while others come up short and Evan shares his secret on how to make your shoulder not hurt during Green Beret Challenge or military selection courses.
