👍

I did not realize you had made it to the Academy. Well done

Yeah, that was me finishing last in the first run.

Although their "scoreboard" showed me finishing second to last in the triathlon which is incorrect. I barely missed getting the last bicycle.

The first three (me included) that were told to go back to the dorm as we were safe, were in complete shock when Glenn walked through that door. Did not expect that at all.

I'll second this. Also watching Episode 1 was the first time I had any idea of what went on in the elimination room - since me, Andre, and Jason were excused first thing. Watching the eliminations brought back memories of the nerve-wracking moments when we all thought our time could be up. The agony, the anticipation... I'll be feeling it every time I watch a new episode I think.

Interesting to hear how much was left out - I've always imagined editing any good reality show would be quite a challenge when you've got a lot to cover in such a short amount of time. Regardless, I really enjoyed the first episode.

I was chatting to one of the cameramen while at Silverstone and he said they were shooting a good 30 hours of footage every day. With five 1-hour episodes for the show, you can imagine how little is actually making the cut for broadcast on TV. It makes me wish the show was longer, to go a little bit more in depth with the Epic Silverstone Week.

It'll be Thursday most likely before I can see the next episode... can't wait!

The next episode is the one I'm dreading most LOL. Seeing those quick shots of us in fatigues makes me want to get sick to my stomach.

At least you made it through the whole thing.

I'm officially requesting a bloopers reel. There has to be some comedy gold in all that.

Yeah like standing there holding a mega sneeze back, Kristin messing up the lines, and as soon as I hear "CUT" I let loose one hell of a sneeze. Entire crew just busts out laughing.......
