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.
Spartans, prepare for a demanding test of resilience at Reveille Peak Ranch in Burnet, Texas. This expansive venue features over 62 miles of challenging terrain, winding through fields of wildflowers and cacti, crossing dry creek beds, and traversing exposed granite. Navigate the hilly Texas landscape in a race that demands both speed and toughness. Push your boundaries on an authentic Texan obstacle course.
