If you missed the episode live, you can watch it on Peacock . The first episode of this season, titled “Water and Ice,” will run for 75 minutes. In “Race to Survive: New Zealand,” participants must rely on a combination of endurance racing, survival skills and intuition as they traverse 150 miles of New Zealand’s harshest terrain, from the depths of ancient caves to frigid alpine summits.
Nine teams of two will navigate the beautiful New Zealand landscape, tasked not only with sourcing their own food and water but also with outpacing their rivals in a race to the finish. In each leg of the race, the final team to reach the finish line will be eliminated. The nine teams participating include mountain climbers, smoke jumpers and recent divorcees.
Last season, Oliver and Wilson trekked across 100 miles of untamed Alaskan wilderness and won the $500,000. When does “Race to Survive: New Zealand” air? The season premiere will be broadcast on Monday, May 20, at 11 p.m.
