Our Wild Stories – Mac Brown and Kurt Spenser – Let’s Make Sure this Sports Still Fun!

Season 2025, Episode 7

Featuring: Mac Brown and Kurt Spenser, of ROKA Multisport

Hosted by: EZF Media

Our Wild Stories - 2025.7 - Mac and Kurt Let’s Make Sure this Sports Still Fun - Cover ArtMac and Kurt share about what it feels like as they both return to Wildflower after more than a decade away from the event.  Kurt previously raced with the Stanford team as a collegiate swimmer, and Mac’s last Wildflower was when he had just gotten married and was starting a family. Kurt sat in the Happier Camper podcast trailer, wearing his commemorative Jesse Thomas aviator sunglasses, of course, remembering just how Wildflower is really a part of the ROKA DNA.  They share about how they sat with Mark Allen that morning, he called Wildflower the “Coachella for Triathlon”, whereas previous generations may say ‘Woodstock of Triathlon’… all the same.  It’s mutually understood that as you stand around Wildflower this weekend, you remember why you fell in love with the community and culture, and that the time away may have left their mind, but it is so real sitting among everyone this weekend.

In this episode, they share about how we need to make sure that the sport of triathlon is still fun, and how Wildflower does that.  Coming to Wildflower lets you see how special this community is, people supporting each other from the first to cross the finish line, all the way to being there for those who cross it last. You’ll see everything from first timers to collegiate athletes really throwing down throughout the weekend-long events. It’s just as fun to cheer on the athletes as it is to soak in the festival… but then you may even be inspired to sign up for the 5K/10 Saturday night.

Join us to find out what new experiences they took away from the weekend.
