Buoy Run (Season 1)

Season 1's Buoy Run

The Buoy Run is an obstacle, used as the first obstacle in the Qualifier during episode 6 of Season 1.

It is ten unstable buoys contestants must run across to the other side. If they fail before getting to the halfway mark, there is a floating platform nearby that they can swim to in order to continue their run.

Only two contestants cleared this obstacle: Charles Zaucha (who later won that episode) and Timothy Ton.
