Race Information
The Spartan Race is a series of obstacle course races designed to test endurance, strength, and agility. Participants can choose from different race types, including Sprint, Super, and Beast, each with varying levels of difficulty and distance. The races feature obstacles like walls, ropes, mud pits, and natural terrains like hills and streams. The events are open to all fitness levels, from beginners to elite athletes. The Spartan Race was created by Joe De Sena, a former Wall Street trader, to inspire people to push themselves to their limits and live more active, fulfilling lives.
Carter and Stevens Farm in Barre, MA, is a lush, robust Massachusetts farm that offers a lot of mud, woods, and rolling hills. After your race, visit the Carter and Stevens Farm Store where you can find homemade ice cream, fresh milk and grass fed beef. Plus, stop by the Stone Cow Brewery to reward yourself with an ice cold beer to end the day.
