Cathal Dennehy of Athletics Weekly wrote that the series would be good for the sport of athletics, but not to expect the same level of interest that Formula 1: Drive to Survive generated.^[2]

Noah Lyles' portrayal in the documentary received criticism, with some accusing the documentary makers of focusing too much on Lyles at the expense of other athletes. Some also argued that Lyles appeared arrogant and "not likable at all".^[6]
