We talked about our predictions for Sprint in a recent podcast:

A couple of months ago, Netflix announced the release date of ‘Sprint,’ a sports documentary series that spotlights sprinters throughout their preparation, training, and competition. From the people who turned cycling and F1 from nothing to something, ‘Sprint’ will hope to bring that same mainstream push.

‘Sprint‘ centers on the intense pressure of competing in a 10-second race under the watchful eyes of thousands, and today, it’s yours to binge on Netflix.

The series features athletes top-tier athletes, including a number of world and Olympic champions from the U.S., Jamaica, the U.K., the Ivory Coast, Kenya, and Italy, including Noah Lyles, Sha’Carri Richardson, Marcell Jacobs, and Shericka Jackson.

Season one is made up of six episodes of about 45-minutes each (so it’s definitely binge-able in a day or two).
