Sorry, a little bit late on this comment (Oct 10, 2019). Love this workout, but afraid some of my esteemed colleagues may be right. Athletes probably ran somewhat less than 1500m per loop. Hogberg looked great and crushed it. Did a rough conversion of his spits to min/ mile. He hit 5:50@ 20#, 5:55@ 30#, 6:15@ 40# and finally 6:20@ 50#. That's booking with that much weight on your back! Possible, but not probable. I am a life long competitive runner and it didn't look like 6 min per mile pace to me. Yes, I absolutely may be wrong and NO, I am most certainly not taking anything away from these athletes. And it really doesn't matter anyway. What was most impressive about Hogberg was his consistency (steady pace) throughout- only a 30 second drop from 20# to 50#! I kinda tried this workout at home and it's deceptively difficult and I slowed down much more w/ 50#. Well, I am probably overthinking this. I love Crossfit!
These athletes are definitely impressive. Sad that they are ruining their knees. There is no way this weighted running doesn't damage their knees. They will end up on a wheelchair very soon
Someone ok now think of us in the military who regularly train with weighted rucksacks over long distances. Most veterans don’t end up in a wheelchair buddy
@@Someone-hs5yb Running doesnt ruin your knees in fact people who run have healthier knees. This is such a stupid myth. Also on the weights maybe if they carried that extra weight for every run it wouldnt be great but one run with added weight isnt gonna do any serious damage if any damage at all.
Was looking for this comment. I expect this to be closer to 1300m if I were to take a guess. Even when the camera is moving with them, it looks like a jog. Not a 6 minute mile pace. Maybe a 7:30 mile pace with that last 100m cut off. But it doesn't look right. Reminds me of how they embellish NBA players' heights.
Kinda awkward they got the GoRuck guy on here because apparently after the event all the athletes were saying how horrible the ruck packs were, lots got blisters from it rubbing on their back and some of the zippers came undone (i.e. Mat Fraser).
Yeah, those "Rucks" are simply backpacks with inside pockets to add the weights. They are extremely uncomfortable. They should have just gotten some old ALICE packs or any newer version of it if they really wanted to simulate true Rucking.
Where'sWally well you need to understand that they don’t train on rucking. And blisters and all of that stuff is a common thing on soldiers while fuckinh is not the equipment but the weight plus distance plus if it is your first time doing it you are for sure feel the pain.
@@littleprofessor92 it si interesting he can usually still think about his pace though.. sorry but you see something falling from your backpack, you check what it was..
@@knofliicek You can't see something behind you. And you most certainly won't feel any weight every time the back pack bounces up since it becomes WEIGHTLESS. Lol
I hear the guys talking about never heard of something like this before about adding weight to the ruck but I recommend to them to take a look at the Best Ranger Competition in 2013 where the ruck was 13 plus miles and there was equipment to pick up during the course as you go. Yes there is an event that has done this type of rucking. I would say Best Ranger competition is way more demanding than this one because the guys are carrying a 60-70 pound ruck then add picking up sand bags, MRE boxes, ammo cans full of sand etc... either way I’m impress to see this event at the Crossfit games. Way to go!!
The big difference for the military is that they start with heavier rucks and have to carry a weapon (an M16 weighs a bit over 8lbs). That creates an imbalance of load, even if you switch which hand holds the weapon every so often. Having weight in your hand also makes it harder to swing your arms.
I really love it that the women be men got th same weights. It's obviously going to be harder for the women but I really love the direct competition here like in the run swim run from events
Obviously harder for the women? Umm no. It's 2019, men and women are physically equal and can lift the same weight. Take your toxic masculinity elsewhere.
@@redunicorn7760 I'm not mocking anyone. A woman can physically do anything a man can do. I don't think there should be sex separation in any sport. Just break it up by weight class . Tia Toomey would destroy Chris Spealer.
@@bertgardner6570 women have a weaker bone structure and more fat than men when the same weight. They're also much lighter on average and smaller. Look at soccer, boys teams beat the national women teams. McGregor would rip Ronda rousey apart at the same weight because the weights composed differently. Women with the same amount of training are weaker and less athletic than men. Weight classes like tht would ruin women's sports
Anyone know how long the course actually was? Hardly felt like 6k, Lukas Högberg would have had to be doing a ~3:39/km pace for first 1500m to get a 5:28. And 4min/km pace overallt for 24min. Doesn’t look like it. Its impressive enough on its own, feels unneccessary to embelish.
does anyone know what the importance of the uniforms are? Like does it mean something to be wearing a green tshirt vs a black, or white shorts vs flowery?

why don't they show all people crossing the finish line ... what the hell its wrong with the coverage ? in every sport you see all people in the right order crossing the line. the commentators later said Hailey Adams was 6th to finish and Brooke wells was 5th ? but the 5th and 6th women to cross, as far as we saw, were Katrin and someone else . this sucks. what happened to complete coverage ?
this is the only reason noah had a run for 1st place if matt didnt lose the weight bag at the end . this games would of been matts hands down as always . hope he learns to zip up correctly for the next games. he had to fight hard to regain the lead after that penilty was given out. which was way to hard mind you.... kara web missed a whole 3 lifts and only got a 6 second penalty in her mistake. seems unfair there.

I hope they will add more colors for the outfits next year again. They look way too uniform and are hard to identify often. Was much better the last years. Commentators also got a lot worse. Was raging a couple of times when they entered the final round and they were talking about round 3.
Averaging 4 min kms at the size of the guys, with the awkward increasing weight that requires the transition and loading....I call bull shit on the distance. Classic 'crossfitters don't take roids' fake rubbish

Absolutely loving this, even though it’s just a bunch of people running around a track! So fun to watch!!!
somethings not right with the numbers
Telling me they're averaging around 6:45 min/miles for 6k with up to 50lbs on..... nahhh
Matthew Bacon more like a 4k than a 6k. Prob running 9 min miles at best
Do you mean 6:45 minutes per kilometer or do you mean 6:45minutea for all 6km??

Running with a swaying bag. No bag will not give you blisters or rub up against your back
What was weight?

This is me running to my class before the bell rings.
I’m confused why two commentators are standing and two are sitting. It makes me feel uncomfortable.
They are all standing. Annie is barely 5'0 and Dan Bailey is only about 5'6. Sean Woodland is well over 6'0.
How can anyone think Matt would deliberate cheat? And on the last turn? He clearly didn’t realize what had happened and he paid dearly.
Kind of difficult not to realize that you've dropped 10lbs. Try it yourself, its a noticeable difference
Surokis Not when your heart rate is through the roof and you’re carrying 50 lbs total on the last turn.

Every time I watch the pre 2017 events I think it looks awesome out in California. Pretty much all the Madison venues just look lame in comparison....
The women having to run with added weight certainly adds a different perspective to their finishing times.
Do you think?

That rucksack seems to mess up the women’s running form more than the men.
Due to womens hips and body composition.
They should design a rucksack with female center of gravity in mind
Just a better rucksack in general, the ones they are using look terrible and they have packed them so badly.
