WHAT IS SPARTAN RACE?

spartanrace1.jpg'Designed by seven ultra athletes and a Royal Marine, Spartan Race is the global leader in Obstacle Racing since 2005, and has become an international obstacle racing series with three levels of courses: 3 mile Sprints, 8 miles Supers (Olympic Distance) and 10 – 12 miles Beasts (Ultra Distance) where you will run, jump and crawl your way over a dozen or more obstacles put in your way!

Courses are uniquely designed to test your mental and emotional fitness and push you past your limits. The races are muddy, creative, and extreme. They will exhaust you and exhilarate you. Race as an individual, as a part of a team or BOTH!

Spartan Race is on a mission to get you active, healthy, excited about change, and return to our ancient roots where running through woods, getting dirty, and facing adversity was part of everyday life. Our events are all about challenging today’s perception of normal.''
