Plot Synopsis

Executive produced by LeBron James, MILLION DOLLAR MILE features contestants who have the chance to win $1,000,000 every time they run the Million Dollar Mile. Standing in their way is the most challenging obstacle course ever designed and a group of Defenders with one mission: to stop the contestants from winning the money at all costs. Tim Tebow hosts this one-hour physical competition series, with Matt "Money" Smith and Maria Taylor seriving as commentators. The Defenders are a group of 10 top-ranked international athletes, including a Green Beret and "Army Athlete of the Year," the most decorated Obstacle Course Race (OCR) athlete in history, and a two-time Guinness World Record holder for both the farthest and highest wall flips. These exceptional competitors hold titles in some of the toughest races, including: Kona Ironman World Championships, Tough Mudder X, CrossFit Games, Spartan World Championships and more. The 10 Defenders are: Emma Chapman ("The Mighty Kiwi"), Max Fennell ("The Machine"), Rebecca Hammond ("The Harvard Hammer"), Veejay Jones ("The Prodigy"), Robert Killian ("The Captain"), Hunter McIntyre ("The Sheriff"), Erik Mukhametshin ("The Beast From the East"), Faye Stenning ("The Canadian Crusher"), Isaiah Vidal ("The Destroyer"), and Orla Walsh ("The Vermaniac").
