About the expert

Nikki Hart is a world-class OCR (obstacle course race) competitor, personal trainer, sports nutritionist, sports performance speed and conditioning coach and fitness author - her latest book being Machine Free Fitness. Before OCR: she started training people in high school, purely by accident; was Woman Athlete of the Year for Track and Field in college her freshman year; graduated from the University of Montana with a degree in Zoology; went to vet school; started a horse rescue facility in Virginia, which she still has; and competes with her horses in 3 Day Eventing- which ironically, is very similar to OCR for horses.

After her college years, she competed in local 5K races, then moved on to Triathlons. Then in 2014, Nikki helped a client prepare for his first mud run which was a Spartan Super. She ran it with him and was immediately hooked and has since continued racing and competing in OCR Championship events around the world. On the side, she enjoys running with her husband and teenage daughters in local mud runs and training horses. Her latest addition to her fitness adventures are trail ultra marathons.
