Oh Gosh, a big respect to the cameramen who kept the same pace like the pro's even uphill! Good Job!

[@randomjoe334]

The cameraman must be fit as heck as well.

[@Lehmann108]

You can hear him breathing!

[@Nnnatural]

Running is such a beautiful thing.

[@pinkfloydmeddle6692]

I agree!

[@ezradaiquiri11311]

This is epic. I feel like I'm right there in the race! Please keep these full race length videos coming! Huge respect, I can't wait to participate! 💪👏🤙

[@JPxKillz]

I feel like there should be footage commentating the camermen jesus christ. "Look as camera man #8, holds an incredible uphill section. Holding a 7lbs camera, ...."

[@jeffwhetstone1587]

Nice video. Why not make two?? Make one for the men and another for the ladies. Have coverage at every obstacle. The rabbits are Amazing!!

[@ezradaiquiri11311]

This is the most epic endurance racing coverage I've ever seen, but lots of room for improvement. Your comment is spot on. 🍻

[@setuptables6803]

99% of the comments are about the camera men, even this one

[@loveionshanpriale749]

This course is absolutely beautiful!!!! 😍😍

[@m.redleg252]

17:18 this is the obstacle where I broke a rib in my first race last weekend. Prior to that I sprained my ankle falling off the damn multi-rig. Still finished.

[@Jay-ku3ur]

Fantastic race and so well filmed.!! Cant wait for more.!

[@NewbTube69]

This was a fun one. Looking forward to this one again next year. Props to the running camera men #beast

[@hibiru6868]

These races are awesome to watch. Such beautiful areas

[@paulleatham6830]

This course was awesome plus I got to meet Killian, Kent, Call, and Moat.

[@yasmaguerra]

I will be there racing soon 💪

[@solomongustafson7035]

A drone or 3 would have been really nice for the camera guys.

[@bjsorensen]

Crevasse: a deep open crack, especially one in a glacier. AKA, not a creek.

[@georgerosalbo4088]

Crazy so cool

[@k10a1]

Crazy people I love !

[@herbbearingseed]

Even the media gripping the mike with all their might, getting in the spirit of the event.

[@Lehmann108]

Dear God, the VO2 Max on these guys must be amazing. I ran cross country and I thought that was hard. I'd love to see their heart rates. Probably peaking at 170-190.

[@deborahfraser4403]

I am only watching and I have anxiety from watching them from that single track on the mountain.

[@toxicindistinct9457]

Leggo Atkins FTW

[@willyou8622]

these girls are beasts. i'd be lucky just to get to that lvl as a guy.... wow

[@marynpippin]

How long was this run? it looks like its 8-9miles? Granted "Spartan Miles" are no joke, but is that what I saw?

[@VeeC3]

As a spartan newbie I think I’m learning as much if not more from the females then the males lol

[@simplydad2015]

Victor Cortez women are so tough it’s amazing. I have been running Spartans and other OCR races for a decade. The women are always amazing

[@dantrujillo6321]

I guess stepping in the red support in the Olympus for men is ok now? I’ve always been told those were for the girls. See at 24:50.

[@tbl5138]

Where is matt graham

[@charleydavis9041]

Did anyone else notice Luna Lima did 6 burpees at the atlas carry? I think he wanted to make up for only doing 4 at the last race! 😊

[@jaadventures5410]

i also do this, just to make sure. just kidding i dont kow how to count

[@dantrujillo6321]

For two races I got penalized for not doing burpees correctly. I did all 30 for each penalty but someone thought they weren’t up to par, but believe me they were hard. Anyway I got top25 in elite at the age of 49, but they penalized me to the amount of 15 minutes. That sucks when you are this old and just trying to relive your glory days and see the spartan elite not doing their burpees correctly and not getting penalized.

[@dx-dragon4399]

Are you required to do burpees if you are in an open division?

[@JRsimp8]

No only if you are in the elite or age group.

[@ianebersole]

Are competitors allowed to use the post on the Z-wall? (Atkins, 1:11:30)

[@kosc23a]

Ian Ebersole yes as of this year they are allowed to use it.

[@ianebersole]

@@kosc23a interesting, that's not how I would read 3.02(d)i-2

[@kosc23a]

Just read it now doesn’t say anything about the post. If you mean the cut out then that’s the wood where the holds are. (Like the opening in between both top and bottom pieces of wood) they also made an announcement about it when it was first allowed I think Alabama or Jacksonville. Both Ryan Kent and veejay used it noticeably in video and the commentators definitely said it’s allowed.

[@ianebersole]

@@kosc23a yeah, someone else steered me to this -- posted to FB but not to the official ruleset m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10218079881646208

[@agetori7743]

vertical post yes, top of the wall no

[@ernestosuarez328]

LOL el costalazo

[@amblincork]

Why do so many women struggle with the spear throw - they all clearly have good hand/arm strength

[@ant2464]

I thought you had to qualify for Elite running. I agree with what you said that if you are getting lapped by women that started 15 minutes after to get your ass on the age group. Haha. These women are absolutely amazing and so are the men.. this looks awesome.

[@user-nb1xs8sq2e]

Это мозахизм . нам все больше придумывают соревнований на пределе .Кому это надо и для чего ...зачем и для чего ...!!!!

[@nohalfmeasures6]

Credit to any of these athletes that are not on PED's. Looks brutal.

[@vandrosia]

Are these athletes tested during the season and after races for PEDs like EPO?

[@Monscent]

Spartan races are just pretty much trailruns iwith a few simple, kinda boring, obstacles.. Why do I feel like elite runners with 6 months of obstacle training would wreck this?

[@morecringe89]

So anywhere you read says spartan....it was enough for the news in youtube so let's call it super... all was great until that

[@djohnson267]

Run steep never huffs into the camera like this. Edit it out or clip the audio next time.

[@stephencox2542]

These slow blokes should not be allowed to get in the womens way

[@matteotate4283]

🔥🔥🔥🔥 🏁🏁🏁I recommend that you look through to the end🏎️🏎️🏎️ 0:51 🔥🔥💯 👇 👇🔥

[@johnguinto1748]

i wish the slow elite men would move out of the way for the ladies 😒

[@NewbTube69]

Most of them do, but I do think they need to be more courteous. I also think the females should speak up a bit more. I ran this yesterday, and it's hard to tell if that crunching behind you is a slow gainer or someone crushing it

[@paulleatham6830]

Yeah the women caught me on the amazing spot that was probably the most narrow part of the course it was also hard to tell who was gaining on you too.

[@stephencox2542]

Agree

[@Welther47]

Would you just shut up, commentators! This isn't football

[@scruffalafugus7745]

Welther47 it’s a sport and it’s their job, put the video on mute if you have to

[@Welther47]

@@scruffalafugus7745 I had to. It completely takes the enjoyment out of watching. But I mention it so they in the future might make some chances.

[@GBHeiser]

Spartan is some of the goofiest shit behind crossfit games. Awful form isn't penalized
