Poncho Rodriguez, of G T Pools, took part in one of the toughest, most physically challenging races on the planet, on the 28th of November 2015. Poncho and his racing partner Jason Scawthorn were truly put through their paces as they completed the Spartan Valencia. This was a Super Spartan race of 15kms with 25 obstacles. Contestants are always told to expect the unexpected and this course was a cross country route which included woods, bushes, moats and climbing obstacles, as well as uneven ground with potential hidden roots or wires and water and slippery surfaces. Poncho managed to complete the gruelling course in 2 hours and 5 minutes and raised a fantastic €750 for AECC, well done Poncho!
