COURSE OPTIONS & DETAILS:

The Spartan Sprint: Spartan Sprint is a 5 km, 20 obstacle race that will change your life. This is their signature race type, a fast-paced adventure through rugged terrain built for new and returning racers alike. It’s the perfect gateway into the world of Spartan. The Sprint is a Spartan Trifecta eligible event.

The Spartan Super: Spartan Super is a 10 km, 25 obstacle race that blends speed, endurance and technical skill. Supers are built to always keep you guessing, testing your athleticism and mental fortitude over rugged terrain. This race separates athletes from Spartans. The Super is a Spartan Trifecta eligible event.

Hurricane Heat: Spartan Hurricane Heat is a team-based adventure challenge that trades course distance for time. Your Hurricane Heat will last either 4, 12 or 24 hours and will not finish with a single victor. HH Teams band together, solving complex physical and mental problems as they endure and overcome as one.

The Spartan Trail: Spartan Trail is a zero-obstacle trail race with distances of 10k, 10k Night Run, Half Marathon and 50k. Our races are held in some of the most picturesque, natural environments around the US and the world. Choose your goal, begin your Road to Ultra or continue your journey through the trail running world with Spartan Trail and the Spartan Trail World Championship!

Kids Race: Spartan Kids is a series of obstacle course races — ranging from 800m to 3.2km — specifically designed to get your kids (ages 4-14) outside, feeling accomplished and having fun. They’ll run, jump and crush their way through obstacles, just like the adults.
