      That's why I always buy the Reebok trail runners... they were designed by Spartan racers and drain water extremely well. I used to be all Solomon all the time, but the first time I did a river crossing in training and then had to run another 6km with lead(water) weights on my feet I looked elsewhere.

    Helix looked fun and new (to me). Hope spartan keeps revamping some of their ancient obstacles.

    • @OCRKings
      @OCRKings  5 лет назад +1

      Agreed. New stuff at Spartan would be great. They had a few other new ones at the Super the day before our race, but they removed that part of the course and the obstacles with it for the Sprint. We are looking fwd to the 8' Box and Beater, both of which present their own unique challenges. Helix was new for us, as was the Tire Flip. We've seen those in videos from out West, but this was a first for us on the East Coast. Hope they have the Tire Flip for all races this year, it's a great strength obstacle. The thing weighs 400 lbs.

    • @trkr75
      @trkr75 5 лет назад +1

      @@OCRKings 8ft box and Beater were killers for me at the Az races earlier. Love the tire, I train with one that is around 350 but I flip it the length of my yard about 15 flips then do 30 burpees then flip it back. Train harder then what you have at the race then it is fun and you know you can do it at the race. My plate drag is about 100 pounds so the one at the race is cake. Will be in Atlanta next weekend.

    Did a spartan last year in Illinois, about the same obstacles. The atlas carry is definitely a tricky one. Ball destroys ground so you are picking up ball from underneath ground level. A lot harder than what it seems.

      At Spartan Races if you don't complete the obstacle, you do a penalty of 30 burpees, rather than trying a second pass. I guess you could go back after your penalty and try it again, but if you don't complete the obstacle you have to do 30 more burpees. Most people do their penalty and then move on.

      @OCRKings  5 лет назад +40

      The dunk wall freaks out A LOT of people. The water's edge was flush with the bottom of the wood for this one, maybe even an inch or so over it. The base of the water pit was no more than 3 feet I'd say. Think of it as waist deep water. The easiest was to defeat the dunk wall is to place one hand palm up under the wall's edge. and grip it. That's your guide. You then hold the wall and go to your hand when you dip your head under. It's safe, and it's FAST. If you look at that part in the video, we both do it, and we're only under the water for a split second.

    • @michaelorrett1737

      Pretty much! Tough Mudder is more military based while Spartan is more of a athletic/competition endeavor

    • @OCRKings
      @OCRKings  5 лет назад +5

      That is a good way to sum it up. Tough Mudder is a "mud run" - usually not timed, and cooperative in nature. There are no penalties for skipping failing obstacles (usually). Spartan is an "obstacle race" - it is timed, there are elite and competitive waves, and penalties for missing obstacles. Tough Mudder is fun based, Spartan is more competitive. Both are fun, both are worth doing.

      Train up, you'll be fine! The bucket for women is 30 lbs or so. The atlas stone is maybe 70lbs. That thing is heavy, but there's a trick to picking it up. Take a knee, and roll the stone up the knee that's on the ground. You can then transfer it to the knee that is up, and it's just a matter of standing up from there. The monkey bars are fine if you keep moving. Bring your knees up while you're on the bars and go hand to hand if you need to and shoot across.

      Love Denali Run The Gauntlet. Did one of those in 2015. That year we ran on the beach. Running in sand added a unique change to the running portion. It made it harder. If they do it again on the beach, run on the wet sand rather than the dry stuff further away from the water. The wet sand is harder and offers more resistance to push off of during each stride. Regardless, enjoy! Have fun and have a great race!
