Props to these cameramen they did great.

Awesome coverage! Would like to see the commentators flitting in and off screen as it used to be but I'm definitely willing to wait 1 day and forego live for an edited version of the race. Well done!

I agree with this too.

is this 10k distance???

I loved the wtf look on the volunteers face when Nicole just dumped her bucket instead of stacking it like she is supposed to. Also can the commentators please call it out when the athletes half ass their burpees? All in all an entertaining watch.

fit camera people! great coverage

Good stuff. Needed more VJ tho

Nice competition. Alternating between males and females race is not necessary IMO. You could create 2 videos and voila!

I love the terrain! Real challenging

Are there any actual Greeks in this race? :-)

how much did the town of mobile pay to talk it up

Wish these broadcasters followed Ryan Atkins and Lyndsey Webster off season and saw how much high altitude trading they did every day. If they have mountain series party is over for leaders right now. That goes for Kilian also who has been high altitude off season.

Lol you do realize that Nicole Mericle and Rea Kolb live and train in Colorado right? Not exactly flat lands. Nicole has no weaknesses

Yeah the Josh battle is cool and all but have you heard about the battle of the Ryans?

what is veejay's timing?

Where was this?

6:39 The guy on the left in the blue.... Does he have APT ? Amazing how he keeps up with a less efficient technique.

That running is killer 😐 I’m totally up for the challenge ✊🏼

xotkflip Mm.. Keeping that same speed is not easy. Those guys in the lead are extremely conditioned. I used to be a long distance runner back in the days and it’s takes a lot of training to manage a good constant speed.

How much money o they get when they win thee races??

Why is the camera man running so fast

@ 27:01 Standing on top of the fence? Rule 3.01(a) (iii) 4. Says - Standing on the top of the fence or crossing the fence results in an immediate DQ. Does this not count?

You have a good eye. It’s funny because it says in the rule just before #4 that you do not need to keep your feet on the ground and that you can use the fence for leverage. But you’re right, she looked very close to standing straight up on that initial pull.

I wouldnt consider it "standing" unless you were on the fence without holding onto anything to keep you up, being able to balance on it.

Do these athletes take in any hydration or nutrition during the event? Very impressive either way.

Great obstacle coverage and commentary. However I miss Kevin Donoghue- he added a lot of good info and energy. Also, it would be nice and flat w better to have the men's and women's races separated. Especially since the videos aren't live and can be edited.

I think the mindset was the women we’re fresh on the early obstacles so it was more likely to see position changes with them than the men in the later stages of the race. They did make sure to catch Adkins pass and then battle for 4th at the end though

how on earth the cameraman kept the shot steady while running on that field ??? kudos to their effort

Image stabilization tech and a gimbal :D

I prefer the normal way these races are narrated and commentators are on screen as often as not. This one seems to me more of a voiceover commentary. Still good but I enjoyed the commentating of Jax a lot more.

Great race, but very disappointing coverage. Once the women started, we seldom saw the men! That's so weird since the leading woman was by herself the entire time whereas the 2nd and 3rd placed men were separated by just 15 seconds. Also the entire time!! :(

Don't forget the men are the best of the best and for the cameramen to be able to stay with them is very difficult, however because the women start a little later they will have more camera people at the areas the women will be and it will be a little bit easier to keep with them than it is the men due to natural differences. Hope that helps x

I would fully agree if the cameramen didn't keep up with the men before the women's race started... But they did! In fact, I'd be happy just to see the men doing the obstacles, but even that was omitted for most of the coverage. And that shouldn't be difficult...

Few tips: it's faster to do the rope climb all arms, just jump up high and then pull yourself really quick, only 5 seconds or so. For the rotating monkey bars, try to skip 3 or 4 at a time and keep your momentum going forward. When there are no obstacles try to sprint to the next one instead of jogging. These are a few simple tips, let me know if you want the best tips on every obstacle.

I bet Americans have "Spartan Races" just because they don't have any real Cross Country Running races! haha
