Q. What’s the #1 thing an OCR chick wants after a race from her guy?
A. My clothes, my water, my finisher shirt, unless it was an astounding race, give me a few and don’t tell me good job if it wasn’t

Q. Does a guy try to talk to the OCR chick before or after the workout?
A. After. Don’t talk to me before; you’re just holding me up and likely to irritate me

Q. Shirt or no shirt for men at races? (This is a stupid question isn’t it ha-ha?)
A. Dress for the weather, if it’s warm enough, take it off haha

Q. Where is the perfect place and food to take the OCR chick after a workout or race?

Q. What’s the #1 thing a guy can do to impress the OCR chick?
A. kill Obstacles, and be humble about it, be helpful. Don’t be a douche. If you’re looking to compliment an OCR girl, comment on a great race or great Obstacle completion, or on her guns, or such, we are strong, we aren’t doing this to look pretty

So there it is men, don’t be butt hurt when you look like you’re standing still during the workout because she’s busting out reps like it is the last workout ever (especially with Faye Stenning). Be region specific when it comes to food, i.e. if you are in Texas, think Mexican food; or if you are in Canada think froyo (ha-ha). And the #1 thing every woman has agreed on so far is your SMILE. This isn’t a rap video, don’t try to look all hard.
