EVENT DETAILS

Welcome to Spartan Australia’s first race of 2017. Situated in the Gold Coast hinterland less than hour from Brisbane and GC, this new location will showcase Spartan's commitment to course development and obstacle evolution.

With a choice of a 7km Sprint distance (great for first time Spartan racers) a 14Km Super distance for those looking to go further or the 21km Combo, where you can race both distances in the one day and earn your unique combo patch. What better way to kick off the new year!

The weekend will also include Junior Spartan Races for kids 3 – 9 and 10 – 14 running throughout Saturday and a 4Hr Hurricane Heat on the Sunday morning 07:00 to 11:00.

It’s the perfect motivation to get you and your friend’s leaner, fitter and yes…muddy!
