The game of Mantracker versus prey has many twists and turns. While the TV show ( a 30 minute show for the first season or 1 hour for the rest ) tends to amp up the hype and the suspense so you will watch next week, I guess that the actual race is a lot like being in a war; long periods of absolute boredom punctuated by moments of shear terror.
Many competitors do not realize just how hard it is walking / running 50 km let alone running from a horse that can run 50 km/hr. Few people walk more than the distance from a restaurant to the car. If you compete on Mantracker you need to be ready for the adrenaline dump and the long dull pain of sore legs and bruises. You need to bring electrolyte supplements and water, and advil or Tylenol so you can keep feeling normal.
The race is a game of patience and skill as much as it is about endurance or intelligence. Mantracker has made big mistakes and cashed in on some really bad mistakes. If you are the prey you need to be right 100% of the time, so you better keep thinking and keep focussed. There will be openings to exploit just like any other competition and if you try and force them then that's when mistakes cost you the game.
