You saw the race. Now hear from the Soldier Coaches who lived it.

Sometimes the best way to tell the story is to simply hand the microphone to the people who were there.

After completing our first-ever Soldiers To Sidelines Spartan Race experience, we caught up with our Soldier Coaches to hear their reactions, takeaways, favorite moments — and have a few laughs along the way.

Because this experience was about a lot more than obstacles.

It was about challenging ourselves. Supporting one another. Building camaraderie. Creating memories. And continuing to strengthen a community built around service, leadership, and coaching.

These are the personalities and people behind the mission — and this is what the experience looked and felt like through their eyes.

Once again, a huge thank you to @spartan for welcoming our community and giving our Soldier Coaches an experience we won’t soon forget, and to @operationheadshot for always being willing to come along for the adventure and capture these moments so beautifully. @exraybrand for keeping us fresh with the perfect gear for the event!

The race may be over, but the stories are worth sharing.

Better Coaching. Better Lives.

Special Patrol Insertion/Extraction or SPIE is a method of Air Assault used to insert or extract a small element out of an area where it is not feasible to land a helicopter.

A strong rope with attachment rings hangs down from a hovering helicopter. Soldiers on the ground wear special harnesses and clip themselves directly to the rope. The helicopter rises straight up until the team clears trees or rocks, then egresses the area.

This technique is demonstrated by a designated group of Ranger Instructors at every Ranger School graduation (weather permitting) during Rangers In Action.
