Preece competed on the debut season of “Outlast” in 2023. The show pitted contestants in teams to survive in the Alaskan wilderness for a $1 million prize.

The premise of the show relies on dropping 16 contestants by parachute into the middle of the Alaskan wilderness during the region’s harsh fall weather.

Upon arrival, the contestants split up into four different teams required to stake out individual locations. Each team is required to work together in hopes of winning the million-dollar prize. No contestant is allowed to work alone, but teams can consist of just two people at minimum.
