It's painful watching those big hulking bodies navigate it. But, you have to give the lead guy credit. He did much better than I expected given his muscle mass. The run starts at th e 3:45 mark.

Why is that one chick wearing pants?
Lol they actually made those body builders run 7k!?!? That's hilarious. I remember watching them do a 3k once and they all appeared gassed by that!
Those guys should be careful that they don't have heart attacks.

Sam Briggs always does pretty well in the endurance events. She won the Murph event for the women in last year's competition. I have no idea. She isn't the only woman wearing pants though. Maybe its because of the terrain and she wanted extra protection when running through the brush. Maybe allergic reaction, insects, etc.
I think Sam may have an endurance background.

Yeah, she jogs 7 miles a week. What an aerobic monster.

Not big enough to be legit "bodybuilders". There is no reason for them to have a ton of aerobic endurance. Their game is all anaerobic power and endurance.

Most of the "running" was barely jogging. When there are women around the male leaders you know they are going very slow.
35 minutes for 7k, given their size, and the terrain, aint too shabby...
Especially when they can lift 5 times more than the average runner.
The running was ugly, the deadlift ladder was ugly (hitching anyone) but watching them do the third event those guys can move moderate weights at moderate speeds for a moderate period of time.
