Description: The athletes arrive at Big Bear Lake, California — this year’s high-altitude mountain battleground — and it seems every athlete has an agenda. The competition’s events are revealed with a twist: the order will be kept secret until each evening’s briefing and a surprise event will be added to the competition without warning. In the end, conquering Spartan Games is just like conquering Big Bear in the fall. You have to be ready for anything. --- 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. New episodes every Thursday at 8 pm EST.
