Happy New Year everyone! Hope to see you all out there on the course in 2024!
Supers are the WAY to go! Perfect distance to push you past your comfort zone and some of those obstacles are legit (if you haven't seen them yet). Favorite race distance now... some of those mountain beasts cripple me for days!
Totally agree! You are spot on. 6miles/10k is our standard run distance now on the weekends. It's the perfect length. The signature obstacles at the Spartan Super are also awesome. They are what really make the Super stand out. We wish there were actually more Supers around us.
Yes, agreed
Did my first Sprint in 2023 in Bethel, NY at age 53. I just wanted to run it without quitting on myself or walking, so I started training months ahead. I did real well and walked away proud of my finish. Now I'm contemplating a Super for this year's event. I'm just not sure if I'm up for a 10k but I'll definitely be participating because of my experience last year. Thank you for your videos, they were a great insight to what I was getting into and helped me prepare for it
Excellent! Glad your Sprint at Bethel went well! I hope you take on the Super. We are shooting for Bethel NY Super this year as a matter of fact. It is a great spot, and if you've done the Sprint there, you'll be familiar with the terrain and be in really good shape to take on the additional distance. The signature Super obstacles add an additional challenge, but since you've done the rest, you know what to expect for 80% of the race. If you do it, we hope to see you there, so hit us up beforehand if you decide to go for it. AROO!
@@OCRKings I'm signed up and currently waiting for the map to drop. I've even convinced my 17 year old daughter to run it. Hope to see you there!
Trifecta Tribe member here. Thanks for another video gents. I learned a lot from you back in 2019-2020 getting ready for my first Spartan, which obviously got delayed until 2021. My first was a Sprint much like most people and though they are a challenge, I think I like the Super the most of the 4 kinds I have done (Beast & Stadion included). The super gives you some longer running stretches between obstacles but not so long and exhausting like a Beast. Having said that I am already signed up for 3 Trifecta Weekend events and training hard for them already. Hope to see you at one of the events this year as I will be at Fayetteville, Cincy and top off the season in West Virginia.
WOW! Three Trifecta Weekends, awesome! Good luck out there with your 3x Trifecta, keep us posted throughout the season as to how it's going. We may cross paths at some point this season, we're hoping to get out to more races this year. AROO!
First up, Jacksonville. Can't wait.
Aroo!!
Looking fwd to a great 2024! see you out there OCR Kings!
Can't wait!
Great video guys! Hope it gets even more out there in 2024!
Happy New Year my friend! Here is to new adventures in 2024!
Awesome. Gotta get my head in the right state of mind. Winter lazy caught up with me. Thanks guys
Winter is tough, esp. with the holidays. Too cold, and too much food. Looking forward to putting in some miles starting this weekend.
You guys have had a lot more bad weather this year than us in MN. but today we start the real cold 🥶
Stay warm!
The signature obstacles in the Super and the Beast (same ones) are the best.
Yup, totally agree with you
👍👍
race season starts next weekend in SoCal!
Super exciting (see what I did there?) - good luck everyone out there in SoCal!!
Looking good guys
Thank you!
The supers are great...perfect length!!!!
Yessir! Happy New Year my friend, best to you and the family!
Fantastic, thanks Mack and Damer!
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you!
Excellent, happy new year guys!
Happy new year!
nice finish line cross there
Thanks!
My friend and I have never done a Spartan race EVER, not even a sprint, but we used our free race credit for a super. Both of us go to the gym 4-5x a week and strength train regularly + play a sport. Will we be alright? Both of us are extremely nervous lol... also, do you have any tips for Spartan beginners? Love your content and subscribed, thank you so much!
You will both be GREAT! If you strength train and are at the gym that often, you will do fine, don't be nervous. For Spartan beginners, if you have no obstacles to train on, just work pullups into your routine. They'll work the same muscles you'll use to climb and pull yourself up or across most of the obstacles at the race. Pullups will also work grip strength. If you can get out and run, especially in the gear you intend to use/wear at the race, even better. Stick together out there on the course, take your time when you get to the obstacles, and just have a good time. If you have any specific questions, esp. about particular obstacles, hit us up ocrkings@gmail.com. AROO!
Happy New Year's Guys !, any idea what your OCR schedule looks like in 2024 ?
Happy New Year! So far looking at Jacksonville, and NJ multiple times for Spartan, then NY and CT for a few other races, then NYC Marathon in Nov. More to come I’m sure. How about you??
The OGs of TH-cam OCR tutorials. Practical, realistic and based on real world experience. Happy New Year guys. See you on the course.
Thank you sir! Hope to see you out on the course and in the greater NYC area later this year!
Any advice for first timers? Wanting to try and do a trifecta weekend even though I have no experience in races just to push my limits
Ok, it might be a good idea to try out a Sprint first. If you are in decent shape, you should be ok. Sprints are the shortest distance (5k/3miles) with the fewest obstacles. This race can help you gauge what to expect for the longer distances (Super and Beast). If you can run a 5k with little or no difficulty, you're gonna be fine. If not, start run training. If you can do pullups without much difficulty, you're also going to be ok. Pullups work the same muscles in almost all of the up and over obstacles and well as the go across ones (like monkey bars, etc.). Not a bad idea to work pullups into your workout routines in general. For most of your training, it's a good idea to work out in the gear you plan to run the races in too. Try out your footwear, your clothes, your hydration/snacks, and any packs you might want to use WELL in advance of your race. You may not need a pack for the shorter distances, but depending on the temperature and elevation of where you intend to do a Beast (21k/13miler), it might be a good idea to plan on wearing some sort of pack and have some hydration and/or supplementation in there. Not sure if this helps. Please hit us up if you have any more questions and we'll be glad to help.
This is a video about other videos. Playing the algorithm game, huh? Gotta do what you gotta do
Spartan Supers are like the middle children of the franchise. Many flock to the Sprints, then save up and go big with Beasts. Supers are kind of hanging out there. They have the cooler obstacles like twister and beater. Trying to create some buzz there.
i think YT hates you guys, seriously. haven't seen you in the feed in a while. bias?
why was this video buried under a ton of crap on the suggested videos feed and not available at all on the yt home page when i logged in?
sad but true
they hate us so it seems
need more supers in general, but definitely more in the north east
Agreed!
very true
