Today, we have
a free entry into any open Spartan Race heat in the continental United
States.
I have wanted to run a Spartan Race for a while now. Perhaps after I complete the Dopey Challenge next year,
I’ll take one on. Don’t get
confused, a Spartan Race is not like any runDisney event we often blog about. There are no costumed smiling characters to greet you
along the course, only obstacles to challenge your body and mind. Spartan Races challenge the entire body, from
your feet all the way to your head.
Do you have what it takes?
Do you have what it takes?
Mulan would be an incredible Spartan warrior, just saying ~DB
The Spartan Race offers events for all abilities, ranging
from 3 to 12+ miles with 15-25+ obstacles.
Perhaps you will eventually work your way through all the options in a
single year and become a member of the Spartan
Trifecta Tribe.
While I have not inquired about yelling cheesy Spartan themed movie lines, I am sure they would be greatly appreciated as you are conquering the obstacles.
Watch the video below for more information
about each of the races. The inspiring sound
track alone should get you to move away from your keyboard and start
training.

Woah this is really cool! I've been looking for some new and different races to try. I ran a couple color races and loved those, so I'd love to try this! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyI would love to win this!! Spartan Race is on my list of must-run races for the year!
ReplyI would like this too please!
ReplyMy fiance and I love doing races together. Last year we ran the Primal Mud Run, and this year we're seeking a new one to try. An entry for the Spartan Race would be perfect! We're all about being active and getting dirty. sethrich AT hotmail DOT com
ReplyI love mud runs!!!!
ReplyI love them more!!!
ReplyI know there aren't costumes for this race usually, but if I win this, I'm thinking I would definitely dress up. Hmmmm, now to think of costumes!
ReplySpartan is a great race! I'm doing my second one in July. My 7 year old son is doing his second Spartan kids race and two of my daughters ages 4 and 5 will doing their first Spartan kids race!
ReplyChristine
My husband and I are planning on running the Spartan Sprint Special Ops in Tampa so we'll try to find you there!
ReplyI do not want an entry but I did want to stop by and say the Mulan mashup photo is brilliant! Kudos to whoever came up with it because you know she'd totally dominate!
ReplyThanks Abby! It is borrowed from the Spartan Race facebook page. : )
ReplyCaked in sticky mud,
ReplyConquering an epic course,
Bragging rights at work!
My goal is to complete a Spartan Race and become an official bad ass. The teamwork, mental and physical strength needed to complete one of these is quite challenging and I would like to prove to myself I can do it.
ReplyAfter checking the locations for upcoming Spartan Races, I've decided if I win I would do the Fenway Park race. It's in the stadium! How cool is that? Imagine if you had to climb the Green Monster...
ReplyWho would be first to cross the finish line, Porky Pig or Babe? I say... neither! Pumbaa would dominate.

“Running is a big question mark that’s there each and every day. It asks you, ‘Are you going to be a wimp or are you going to be strong today?’” – Peter Maher
ReplyI'd go to New York. I like a good road trip, and could use another medal for my wall.
ReplyMud runs are the only place I can wear a tutu and still feel like a man.
ReplyA man walks into a bar. He sits down and orders a beer. He hears a small voice that says, "Hey, that's a nice tie". He looks around, and he's the only one in there. He takes a sip of his beer and hears that same voice, "Hey, I like your suit". Again he looks around, and he finally asked the bartender if he said anything. The bartender shook his head and went back to washing glasses. The man then hears, "Hey, I like your hair". He finally asks the bartender, "Did you just say you like my hair?". The bartender replied, "No. It must be the peanuts. They're complimentary."
ReplyPlease, please let me win the race entry for Fenway Park! I probably won't get to a Sox game before the season ends and it would be a blast to be running around inside the park.

ReplyMy fiance and I want to do this together! It would make a great wedding gift to ourselves!

Okay, so i still haven't decided what I would dress up as, but I have recruited a couple of friends, so if I win, there will definitely be a few of us going :)
ReplyWhat a great blog! I love that you are giving away a spartan race entry. I might have to dress up like a chameleon and try to sneak my way through the course. This kind of race scares the you-know-what out of me!
ReplyMy daughter just turned 4 and she is so excited to run the kids run at the Spartan Race. A family that plays in the mud together, stays together!
ReplyI need a free race. The emptiness of my wallet from race fees does not counteract the my pants falling down from weight loss.
ReplyFun fact about Fenway Park: The Green Monster wasn't always green. It started out as navy blue with white advertisements on it. But that distracted the players, so the ownership needed to find a new color... and they settled on green.
ReplyI just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that you both have very kind eyes and beautiful smiles. I just hope that you have an amazing day.
ReplyI'm not planning a honeymoon! This race would be a nice consolation!

ReplyMore facts about Fenway Park: the oldest park in the league, the seats in the grandstand are the original seats from years ago.
Reply“I tell our runners to divide the race into thirds. Run the first part with your head, the middle part with your personality, and the last part with your heart.” – Mike Fanelli
ReplyAroo! THIS IS SPARTA!!!!!
ReplyI'm ready to kick butt(keeping it family friendly) and take names.
That I may conquer the rolling hills while crawling through mud, the challenge of the terrain only topped by the challenge of the mind, I will SPARTAN ON!
ReplySpartan race is on my bucket list I missed out last year due to surgery. But my husband ran it and after hearing him talk about it he called it the Satan race cause the super Spartanin VA is difficult... I don't know if this Princess can handle that much mud Also I was truly inspired by team extreme who ran at the mid Atlantic last year to include their founder an amazing person
ReplyMore facts about Fenway Park: in a sea of green bleacher seats, there is one red seat. This marks the spot where Ted Williams hit the longest home run in Fenway history.
