I just did this race! My first beast! This was a great recap, I loved reliving it from the comfort of my couch haha
Awesome and congrats! Its always fun to watch these while your still a bit sore from actually doing it!
Doing my first next weekend! Are there enough water stations or do most people wear a hydration pack?
I would definitely bring a hydration pack and nutrition for a beast. There are water stations but i would just use them to refill my pack. I ended up in the ER for dehydration during a really hot summer super last year, snd felt like shit most of the race. Even though the beast is twice as long, having a pack and nutrition helped me finish strong feeling good! The OCR kings actually have an another great video on fuel for endurance races, I used tailwind and stinger waffles at their recommendation and they worked great.
What a great weekend! Trifecta weekend #2 completed:
Beast Competitive 3:16:10 5/32 in Age

AROO! Here we come Montana! I’ve gotta get that podium!
WOW!! Great stats my friend, and congrats!! AROO!
Fantastic time on that course. Ultra next year!
have been watching your channel for a while just finished my first Spartan race there on Sunday with the Super, some crazy elevation and rocky terrain. but was amazing. and worth it all in the end
Congrats on your first Spartan Super there at Mountain Creek! What a course to do it on, great job! And agreed, totally worth it
I was fixing those spikes that held the rope at plate drag all day!!
Was great seeing you guys out there!! Always makes my day!!
Good to see you there too my friend! I was yelling at Damer "You broke it! You see, that's why we can't have nice things!" I don't think he was amused. And you mentioned your Mom was volunteering too? She was at Plate Drag, I think when we were there, no??
Brutal course for sure!!!
Indeed! So many leg cramps out there. We were handing out (and consuming) quite a few mustard packets.
Fantastic recap and an awesome course. Great job guys.
Thanks so much!
Completed my ULTRAFECTA!!! What a mental battle it was. 3rd in my age group💪🏼 I sadly did not see you guys. Will you be at Palmerton? What about Killington?
OUTSTANDING!! Congrats, and hats off to you, that mileage and elevation is no joke! This year unfortunately neither for us. Are you going to either, to both??
Thank you I appreciate! Yes I’ll be completing another trifecta with the stadion in June and then Palmerton super and killington beast.
Way to go gents! I completed the Beast in Johor Malaysia last weekend, seriously hot and humid. Made it very challenging but happy to finish it.
Excellent! Congrats on completing your Beast!!
Doing my first Spartan race tomorrow! Super in Monterey, CA! Your videos have helped me so much to prepare. Subscribed!
Excellent, have a great race and enjoy!! And thank you!
Thanks once again gents. Those ropes on the slip wall are usually about 1/2 way up on the Beast...glad to see them all the way down, but it's cruel to put them after the dunk wall. LOL I will be doing this in 4 days in NC. Too bad they still don't have anything much new other than a barbwire craw to get into the starting area. Was it me or was the Atlas Ball smaller? Great video as usual.
You are welcome and good luck in NC!
and it seems like some atlas balls are well worn, beat up, and a bit smaller than new ones. Certainly smaller than the ones we made at home to workout with.
💪 greetings from Italy Vicenza 😎👊
Hello there!
Looks like you guys smoked all of the obstacles! Can't wait for my first race of the year!! Hope to see you both at Bethel!
Thank you sir! And Yes, hope to see you at Bethel!!
Awesome. I’m signed up for Pittsburgh Infiniti Tough Mudder. Lots of hiking for distance, trail, running, and pull-ups to prepare. Your videos have been helpful over the years, so I thank you.
Sounds like you've been in a good training phase and ready to go! Good luck and have fun! Glad to help and hope to see you at an event!
Awesome video. I already completed a super. Now I'm doing the sprint in big bear. And after... The beast. Thanks for all your vids. They help out alot🤙
Excellent! Good luck out there at your races and AROO!

Amazing job guys!
Thanks!
just did my very first spartan was a 10K super here in texas a few hours ago!
That is awesome! AROO!
How did you do the ropes on Z-wall? The volunteer was telling people they could stand sort of on the lower wall. But that's against the rules. It's too low to tarzan and I don't have the upper body to hold myself up there.
I failed it both the first 2 races and on the 3rd I went on the inner track, grabbed the 2nd ones and leaped for the bell. Not sure if there is any other practical way. Usually they still have feet if it’s ropes so this was a first.
We were told this time (and last year) that standing on the top edge of the lower wall was a no go. We dangled there with our knees running against the lower wall and occasionally scrapping the top edge. We mostly looked like we were kneeling in mid air. It was not very glamorous looking. I tried to put my feet against the bottom wall like doing Olympus, but it was too awkward and slippery.
Nice workaround!
Very nice guys. Very nice. Was it one long course or did you do laps?
Thanks! This was a long one, a single course of 14 miles. The elevation gain and the hills were kind of crazy. Good times!
The Beast, Super and Sprint are usually in my experience long courses with the Super usually following about 1/2 of the Beast course and the Sprint 1/2 of the Super. This is why most of the obstacles are at the start and finish because if you do a trifectas, you can expect to do 2/3 of the obstacles 3 times by the finish of the Sprint. It's the Ultra that is usually a Beast run twice more or less or 2 laps.
Yep. I'd like that. Looks like fun.
Were there foot holds on the z wall rope part or was that just straight grip?
Great question! No, there were no foot holds for that section. You could face the ropes and put your feet against the board down there (sort of like olympus), but that was really slippery and weird, or you could let your legs dangle and have your knees slide/scrape across the board surface (what we both did).
@@OCRKings thanks for the clarification. Camera wasn't giving full coverage on that one. Since it's a new idea I get excited
@@mattsully2238 Right on! And yeah, I thought of that afterward, no view of the feet on any part of that obstacle. I was trying to get Damer, the ropes, and the bell, and no donk into anybody on the wall behind me. We're gonna have to have a video discussing the new Z Wall layout, as well as Olympus. They shortened the chains, and the wall face felt super grippy, scratchy almost, like sandpaper.
how do you do the stair way to spartan that is hard to get up using the red grips
Good question. The short answer is we try to get to a point where we can put a foot on top of one of the hand holds as quickly as possible. The best example can be seen here at 11:57 czcams.com/video/YKxEdsUWg9k/video.html Basically it's a little jump to grab a handhold with each hand, move up one, one more, then get ready to plant a foot on the first hand hold I can. Once you have a foot, and two hands on the holds, you've beaten the obstacle. Doing pullups really help with the very first part, of grabbing the handholds and transitioning to the next two.
Doing my first beast next weekend! Do you recommend wearing a hydration pack or are there plenty of water tables?
Excellent, good luck next weekend! Where is your Beast? Is it hot there? If so, maybe a hydro pack is a good idea. You know your hydration needs best. Overall, Spartan's hydration situation is very good. You might be able to get by on their water stations. We prefer to carry our own hydration and supplement that by "drinking the local" meaning having water as needed from Spartan. Our preference is not a full hydration bladder, but rather one or two 12oz Gatorades in the front pouches of the vest. That's what we did in this video. Two Gatorades and Spartan water worked for us for the whole race. If where you're running is hot, maybe consider a hydro bladder, you could always dump out some water if it's too heavy or unnecessary, and you can drop the pack on the monkey bars, rig, etc. If not too hot, and you are used to running light, maybe skip the hydro pack. Again, you know your needs best, and Spartan is pretty good on providing water.
@@OCRKings awesome thanks for the info! I’m doing Montana. It shouldn’t be too hot!
What model GoPro?
We used the GP Hero 8 Black here too. Good battery life and doesn't overheat.
@@OCRKings How do you set up the video
just like old times, eh slick?
Ha, thank you Special Agent Johnson, no relation
so insanely superior to all those rip off videos out there. that's why they continue to rip you off i guess
sincere form of flattery maybe?
