Spartan Sprint: 5+ Km, 20+ Obstacles
This is our shortest distance. It is perfect for athletes of all levels; from Spartan first timers to seasoned racers. The 5+ Km Sprint may be our shortest distance but it packs more than 20 Signature Spartan Obstacles. If you think you can’t do it, you’re wrong. Get to the start line and show yourself what you are capable of.
Spartan Kids: up to 3.2 Km, 7-14 Obstacles
Our mission is to inspire kids (4 to 14 years old) to get out, be active and enjoy themselves.
We encourage kids to jump, run, help each other and have a good time while conquering obstacles. You're never too young to set goals and celebrate accomplishing them. It is an epic feeling universal for all ages.
Most importantly though, we keep it fun.

Team members are timed individually and are not required to cross the Finish Line together.). Please remember to create a team if you wish to race together with your friends in the same heat time.
