DAY TWO EVENTS:
- SPARTAN CROSS: A high-intensity, obstacle-heavy OCR short course.
- SPARTAN TRAIL: A trail half marathon with a twist. For the first two miles, all athletes must wear 5.11 weight vests.

Spartan Games: Battle of the Fittest
Sixteen athletes — OCR legends, functional fitness champions and more — enter a new battleground to compete for $50,000. Over four days in Big Bear Lake, California, they will fight through nine grueling challenges that test every facet of physical and mental fitness: obstacle racing, combat, trail running, mountain biking, and a few surprise challenges created with Air Force Special Warfare. Every athlete will be tested. Every athlete will be ripped out of their comfort zone. But only one will be The Fittest.
