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!
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.
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.
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,...
This is so helpful, thank you .. I'm also joining a lot of time in SPARTAN RACE but I'm always Field at monkey Bar or any kind of hanging Obstacles,.coz I'm just 5'ft and i have small hands, can't really reach the distance of monkey bar...so Sad ' anyways ' im still racing until i can do my best...... thank you again and arOoo 💪
Good luck on your first Spartan Race! As I am sure your fiancé has already warned you, this can become pretty addictive lol In which venue will you be racing?
Oh geez 30 burpies each fail!!? I thought you can just pass them by 😭! Maybe I messed up signing up 😂. I’m so nervous I have one coming up In may it’ll be my very first time
@@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

Your 1000th liker! I appreciated the video and thanks to you, I feel more motivated and know what to start with! Subbed :)
This video really helped me. I trained a lot and have my first race tomorrow!
Really cool video, I’m prepping for my first 5k spartan right now and this was really helpful! Thanks!

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

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.
Love from runners family ❤❤🏃♂️🏃♂️
Thanks for the advices Morgan i’ll be doing my first one this year 😁
Thank you for the tips! I'm looking forward to the video of your Spartan race!

Good timing. Spartan beast coming up
Your gonna get addicted ! I love it !
Very good ideas, thanks for sharing!
This WAS awesome! Great video so easy to listen to and watch
Very good video! Someday I'll use your tips to prepare myself for this kind of competition!
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.
Hi coach Morgan 🙋♀️🤩
This for me is very motivational!!
Love this video!❤ 👍👍👍
Very helpful! Thank you so much. Basically all you need is some trees and rope lol
Good luck on your first Spartan Race! As I am sure your fiancé has already warned you, this can become pretty addictive lol In which venue will you be racing?
haha yes i’m fully aware 😅 I’ll be racing at Bethel, NY
Thanks for great tips!
You are welcome! We are so glad you liked them!
Thank you.
Love this!!, do you have more videos related to this? I'm signing up for my first spartan race.
Thank you so much
AROO AROO AROOOO 🔥
Can you link the follow up video? I’m not seeing it on the page-thank you!
Oh geez 30 burpies each fail!!? I thought you can just pass them by 😭! Maybe I messed up signing up 😂. I’m so nervous I have one coming up In may it’ll be my very first time
How did it go?
God I wish they had events like this in my area. I enjoy my runs but it’s been getting a bit stale.
Hey I got one of those lime green ultra bib from Vermont. wondering where that was at. Go crush and kill it on the course! 👍
What study state running??
I gonna run 1 km on sand in 20 days (Redbull quicksand). What are your advices for me? What should I train more?
We actually have an entire video of how to run on the sand on our channel you should check it out!
Is it okay for my chest to hit the ground when doing penalty burpees?
can i use my nike spikes for a titans race , 5k obstacle run?
So are you thinking you’ll do elite or AG? Which venue and distance?
Coach Morgan is signed up for the elite wave in Bethel, NY
Amelia Boone - that is all.
she’s a beast!!
Hahah "heavy carries". You know those sandbags are about 35-40lbs
yes but carrying about 40 pounds up a ski slope for a quarter of a mile is not an easy task.
You haven’t done a competitive Spartan have you?
