Despite being retired from professional football for more than a few years, Moss is still finding new ways to release his competitive energy.

Drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in 1998, Randy Moss went on to be one of the best wide receivers to ever suit up in Vikings uniform. Now 40-years-old, Moss has been retired from the NFL since the 2012 and is now eligible to be voted into the next class of inductees for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Since his retirement, the former wide receiver has stayed involved in the sport that made him millions and has even created himself a new career as an NFL analyst. He first began his broadcasting career with Fox Sports, but currently he is a member of ESPN’s NFL coverage team.

Aside from his time that is spent in front of the ESPN cameras these days, Moss has continued to keep his body in top physical shape by participating in a number of Spartan Races across the country.

Most recently, the former Vikings receiver took part in a Spartan Race in his current hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina.

In the clip, Moss is shown climbing over obstacles, rolling around in the mud, and celebrating with other participants as they cross the finish line. Taking part in these races has allowed the former wide receiver to continue in testing himself both physically and mentally despite no longer playing professional football.

Of course, Moss’ outgoing personality also comes out during these races as he is shown joking around and encouraging other participants to help them conquer the course’s difficult obstacles.
