As a long distance runner , I can tell you this is extremely difficult for these muscle bound athletes! I am very proud of how well they are doing.💗. Six miles is a long race!
@@Vincent44483 Yep, the elevation changes and uneven ground make them use muscles running on asphalt/concrete could not prepare them for. Using way more stabilizing muscles than you would running a regular 6mile loop on the road.
No disrespect. But Mat is different because he puts in insane amount of work into it. The amount of mental fortitude and the consistent hardwork he puts in during training clearly reflects in the games.
Thanks for watching, Vishal! If you liked the Ranch Loop, check out Atalanta from the 2020 CrossFit Games. th-cam.com/video/xTlfNpKisIA/w-d-xo.html We think you might like it!
I live in CA and “run” trails just like these. It is hard to describe how punishing a 50% gradient is on your run. a 3 mile hill run at these gradient s is way harder than say a half marathon. I run both regularly and find the the flattish half along the coast way easier than the 3 mile hill run. I slow to a walk every time.
Not sure if this will ever be seen by the editors but the fast forward animation/sound is a little unsettling. Just make the time clock larger or something, I'm sure the viewers can figure it out. Love CrossFit! Love the content! I hope to see this sport blow up like never before when we can put covid behind us!
I run 9km on a flat ground in 52min icannot imagine myself doing it on a hill hoooooooly mooooly it will take 2 hours 😅hearts of a dragon they have right there. Much respect 🐉
The announcer continues to repeat himself "It's a 3-mile loop... It's a 3-mile loop... It's a 3-mile loop." Okay, already we know it's a 3-mile loop - stop telling us the same thing over and over.
i wonder if they were pissed when they were told to keep going, thinking theyre about to be done. use all your energy to push to the end to be told to do it again. great loop
Running in reverse for me would be an advantage, I could start to check my mental notes of the first half and start to hit check points and know when to push close the the finish BUT! I would’ve blown my wad in the first half and been too dead 😂😂😂
It would have been more enjoyable to watch if the men and women competed at different times. I found my attention was split the way it was done here. I wanted to follow both races equally. Also, what's with the silly hashtags?

In Nepal every year there will be British Army selection for Gurkhas. There will be final test 3Ml up hill including ladders. The record is for 3ml is 30 min 17 sec. The fun fact is he completed 3ML within 30min 17 sec with 25kg carrying on his back which we call DOKO CARRY
They should at least give them water they have a danger of dydration especially in the heat if they are the world's fittest a mountain 10k should be easy for them was surprised to see how much they were struggling
Spoken like an absolute Moron. All of these guys are obese on the BMI. Their level of cardio is INSANE for them to move at that weight, over a 10k run at that pace.
@@aaronspeight4659 running a 10k like that is not very impressive even with there body weight if you put those times against top mountain runners they wouldn't even be mid pack what the point of the event if they are so slow compared to them fair enough if they are sort of close to weightlifter but compared to professional mountain athletes they not even close plus there form is terrible
Would have been a huge advantage. Matt and that 2nd guy suffered most. They were sprinting to the end and all of a sudden, no halfway. Others may not have known but they’d have to be stupid not to notice that those who are coming back at them are still competing.
They are definetely not made for running. Strong athletes indeed, but running or other endurance activities are not in their cords. Too much weight to bring around.
@@devinstucky6948 Well VO2 maxes in XF athletes rarely exceed 60 ml/kg/min (of those I've measured who competed in regionals with some moving on) which is nowhere near HS or college endurance athletes. Their cardio is far more relevant to interval resistance training modalities vs the 5k/10k they ran here.
@@gannonw You sound way more educated than me on this so I won't argue any of that but look at what you're comparing. Trail runs they know the exact distance and run the race accordingly. These guys didn't. They had 4 brutal events previously (hip flexors already feeling like hell), the runners showed up fresh. Runners train for one event, xf trains for anything, including brute strength. I think people would be surprised how good at cardio top level xf athletes are if they were to compete at a trail run. One event. All the same factors as runners.

Yeah I am a long distance runner and I was just like I am so glad I never had to do this cross more and more as it went on
It really is only people who exercise would know
Yes, and also remember that this is not a smooth ground, u have to run across the hills as well.
@@Vincent44483 Yep, the elevation changes and uneven ground make them use muscles running on asphalt/concrete could not prepare them for. Using way more stabilizing muscles than you would running a regular 6mile loop on the road.
@@kingdomcome1617 personally i find uneven ground easier to run on idk why .but i get what u mean
Matt Frazier is, in every sense of the word, built different
The irony is that they probably built this just to mess with him and he still smokes it
No disrespect. But Mat is different because he puts in insane amount of work into it. The amount of mental fortitude and the consistent hardwork he puts in during training clearly reflects in the games.
@@TJackSurvival that is true, matt's build is more heavy. So seeing him smoking everyone in this endurance and stamina test, respect to matt.
Elephant Man would argue that.
Nope, Josh bridges, navy seal, matt is normal.
I watched this whole event live, this event, with that twist is the ULTIMATE test of both physical and mental fitness in my opinion. What an effort.
They got so pumped to finish and gave it their all and then had to turn around and do it again. That is very mentally tough. Proud of them!
Exactly, just wow!!
Broooo they did them so dirty after that first 3 miles looooool
They put a helicopter sound effect over the drone footage lol
🤣🤧
Man, watching Mat sprint at the "the end" thinking he won, that's brutal. I mighta swung at Dave tbh. Fucking Dave
When he said "run it in reverse" I thought they were gonna back pedal the whole thing
🤣🤣🤣🤣
crossfit 2024 twist.
Same here !!!
All my respect for these athletes!
Rich froning jr
Kathrine is so confident! I love how she seems so confident & unbothered.
As a person who goes on mountain hiking myself can understand the hardship of this event. Huge respect for all these athletes
I've never seen before this kind of race.
Such a beautiful race and all players who participated are winners 🏆🥇

Crazy just shows the mental strength these athletes have got ! WIM HOF would be proud !
To bad they didn’t cover the women as much. All of a sudden Katrin is winning!
The documentaries make this sport more entertaining than watching in length.
running that 5k trail in 26 min is very impressive. 26 min with that much muscle mass is elite level
спасибо, что написали сколько они бежали и в какое время должны были успеть. Без перевода непонятно
Yes, 26min for 5k impressive indeed, especially with that terrain
This was my favorite event 👌🏼
Why?
Thanks for watching Silvia. A new season of RECAPS is here: th-cam.com/video/nWB2jWCAGCw/w-d-xo.html
run with me😋
Matt Fraser is the Lance Armstrong of crossfit, he's insane
Not the best comparison actually 😅 but i understand what you're saying.
💉💉😂

That's good work, I find some trails like this here in Michigan
Wow! if you're done and finish first, you still have to do another CrossFit round... wtf?
They need a camera crew on the ground running with them. This POV perspective is better than drone shot after drone shot.
Thanks for the feedback Brian. BTW, a new season of coverage is here: th-cam.com/video/nWB2jWCAGCw/w-d-xo.html
Matt is on another level WOW 👌

The middle finger Fraser gave Dave at 08:55 😂

Love CrossFit! Love the content! I hope to see this sport blow up like never before when we can put covid behind us!
Would’ve have been a bigger twist if Dave just “one more lap”
Then it would be a more surprise for all athletes.
Manbuns and mullets, crossfit has really adopted the eccentric.
Wish they'd do this again!
6miles is 9.6km if anyone was wondering!
I watched this race over and over again. This is such a lecture too many people. When you think you are done you are only half way.
Very nice 👌 👍 👏 😊🎉
CrossFit athletes . All of them have a great physique 👍
And destroyed joint😂
@@alyssab4538 yes but its coman in all types of sports 👍🤟
That climb is vicious
I'm only going to say this because I'm out of shape but there is no way I am going to run that many miles.
Threw my burger in the dustbin when I started seeing this video
Imagine the helicopter noise and this guy talking nonstop at the same time!
I run 9km on a flat ground in 52min icannot imagine myself doing it on a hill hoooooooly mooooly it will take 2 hours 😅hearts of a dragon they have right there. Much respect 🐉
This is the Pro hunter test in hunter x hunter irl.
love their road shoes to run trails and to not carry any water with electrolytes :)
So it really only screws with the leaders...that sucks
Insane ...what a mind fu**
I wonder how David Goggins would do in this race
He’d crush it
David isn’t the fastest but he runs the longest
Itd be a nice stretch out for him so he can do a real race
Goggins would laugh the more it hurts
Buen evento el más duro
I thought this was a bad test with the twist cause thats not very fair.
Cool
Bring back the ranch
Tia is just 🥰😍🥰😍🤩🤩😍🥰😍 gorgeous!
I'm not going to lie, I'm just here to watch Brooke Wells. I could watch her eat pancakes and be happy.
That was a little messed up lol I wish they told them before hand! Lol as an ex cross country runner I would've been frustrated lol
Suor e poeira, perfeito!
I’d would Fluckzin LOVE TO DO THIS!!! Manifestation on the way lol
I rolled my ankle just watching this...
I was waiting for them to run backwards , pssh
The announcer continues to repeat himself "It's a 3-mile loop... It's a 3-mile loop... It's a 3-mile loop." Okay, already we know it's a 3-mile loop - stop telling us the same thing over and over.
Watching this is exhausting
Open carrying at the CrossFit games. Even if it is his ranch, that should tell you everything you need to know about Castro. 😂
This is interesting ,it looks very similar to a military style of running-training from French Foreign Legion
OMG how strong they are
I notice ,the finalist are always the same winners.
Inventors of EPO must be proud
i wonder if they were pissed when they were told to keep going, thinking theyre about to be done. use all your energy to push to the end to be told to do it again. great loop
that was more of a "stepped back kick in the nuts" more so than a twist.
Jesus christ!!! next time just get a drone instead of that noisy chopper...
wtf why they don't tell them the rules and must learn it in move???
I could never so 🫡
Super 🥰👍💪🏃♀️😍🥰🥰🥰
Running in reverse for me would be an advantage, I could start to check my mental notes of the first half and start to hit check points and know when to push close the the finish BUT! I would’ve blown my wad in the first half and been too dead 😂😂😂
I want join this games

WHOLE pot ?
Noooooooooo🤩
Is that donuts challenge ?

#hashtag
Haha they laughed hahah they thought it was a joke

Can cold weather be an advantage for the body's resistance compared to climates with high temperatures?
Did this count as one event or two? I would think they should get points for going forward and points for going backward.
these hashtags are soooo anoying...
I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. Enough already with the hashtag everything!!!!!!
They should at least give them water they have a danger of dydration especially in the heat if they are the world's fittest a mountain 10k should be easy for them was surprised to see how much they were struggling
Mental fortitude is what separates super athletes from regular joes. They just conquer that inner bitch.
not quite 10km it was 9.6

they’re the fittest people in the world lol
A good Cross country runner can smoke these guys
Good dam reverse
I really admire these athletes. Dave Castro...not so much.
God , they did't sip a water in the half of distance !
muted announcers...
telling them they have to go do the course in reverse is just insult to injury. Haven't they suffered enough?
Superr !!! v
:)
I do pause sometime..so that they can rest...😅
Katrin knew all along... speculation but it’s a little fishy
She's known Castro long enough to prolly speculate enough lol
Would have been a huge advantage. Matt and that 2nd guy suffered most. They were sprinting to the end and all of a sudden, no halfway.
Others may not have known but they’d have to be stupid not to notice that those who are coming back at them are still competing.
How the women not chaffing??
But they are walking a lot of it supposed to be a run not a walk
why do you forget say ...and half women?)
Papayita 😎
They are definetely not made for running. Strong athletes indeed, but running or other endurance activities are not in their cords. Too much weight to bring around.
Пытаюсь понять, что там от женщины осталось?
An hour, with no water or fuel? Yikes
This is a relatively flat course by mountain running standards but certainly a good performance especially since cardio isn't in their regular regime.
Cardio isn't in their regimen?? They run, swim, bike, row and run some more. Stupidly good at it too. They're cardio machines.

supernatural XD
The female at the 11:30 mark is juiced to the gills!!! Lol.. They don't drug test at crossfit games?
they are tested
@@69104 Lance Armstrong was tested too but he always passed that doesn't mean anything
Who runs in pants?
Athletes who need to be prepared to run, climb and hike on trails with steep terrain.
pro que cicladas tienen todos jajajajjajajajajajaj
