Sometimes people try something new and "catch the bug." Many runners who finish their first 5K and start dreaming of a 10K can attest to that. How do obstacle course racers know that they've got the fever (and the only prescription is more Trifecta passes)?
10) Homeowner's insurance be damned, you will scale the side of your house in order to practice tall wall climbs.
9) You own a spear, and probably pulled some strings to get a cheap bale of hay to throw it at.
8) Disco Stu may not advertise, but you do. People can tell you do OCRs just by looking at your wardrobe (or your car).
7) Your family expresses concern for your mental and physical health with the quantity/distances that you are racing (Mom, I've told you, I'm FINE).
6) You follow at least five (5) Spartan pros on Instagram, as well as five more Age Groupers.

4) You see little point in signing up for only one measly lap of a sprint-distance race. At least two. Maybe three, if you're feeling saucy.
3) When they cut down trees in your neighborhood and you steal a stray log from your neighbor "for training purposes" (YES, I SERIOUSLY DID THIS LAST FRIDAY).
2) You plan family vacations around their proximity to OCRs and figure you can "sneak away" to do the Florida Beast during a trip to Disney World.
1) You view holding a newborn baby as an opportunity to test your grip strength.
