    I ran the 5k sprint in Big Bear Lake, CA a few weeks ago. Your tips in this video were spot on. The only obstacles I failed were multi-rig and rope climb and both were just not having the grip strength and climbing technique.. I didn't realize how steep the climb would be and the 5k seemed like way more. I'm training for the 10k next year!

    So I thought you planted the seed in my brain to attempt a spartan race. Then the Burpee thing came up. I do burpees and hate them, despise them. But I do them. I think Ill stick to triathlon racing. Yes I am not that strong. Good luck to your first Spartan race. Im sure you will knock it out of the park.

      sometimes we need to embrace the things we just like to make us better athletes.

      Won't have to worry about burpees if you don't fail the obstacles. 😜. If you run open wave, burpees arent enforce, theyre just more fun. Plus there are other races with no burpees. Savage Race, Tough Mudder, OCRWC,...

    • @dawnramirez46

      If you're not racing competitively, you do not have to do the burpees or penalty laps if you fail/ do not attempt an obstacle.

    Hi Morgan, hope to see you in a Spartan or OCR race in Europe. I'm not a pro, but amateur one and I race in my age group from 5 years. I love them. God luck for your first Spartan.

    You are 100% right. If you don’t practice your grip strength, there is no way you’ll complete a Spartan. It’s a lot tougher than on a YT video lol.

    Hahah "heavy carries". You know those sandbags are about 35-40lbs

    • @TheRunExperience
      @TheRunExperience  3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      yes but carrying about 40 pounds up a ski slope for a quarter of a mile is not an easy task.

      @Alyssa684 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You haven’t done a competitive Spartan have you?

    • @zombiejesus7445
      @zombiejesus7445 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Alyssa684 I have. Multiple times placing top 5 in competitive bracket. Mostly beasts and ultras. They are fucking jokes for races. 80% of the "racers" can't even jog the whole race. So if you can at least do a 12minute mile you will crap on most of your heat

      So glad to hear this! Coach Liz on our team just did the Tough Mudder 5K in New England this past Saturday! You are going to have a blast! Which distance did you sign up for?
