Are you tough enouth to be A Spartan?

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Spartan Race for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Now that both Wayne and Robyn are running again, I am forever keeping my ear to the ground for new and interesting ways to challenge them and just the other day I came across Spartan Race!  Designed to be more than just a workout - it's actually a fun and entertaining way to get your exercise in!

The Spartans of the Ancient World were tough as nails and stood up to any challenge.  These days, Spartan participants can choose just how tough they are with races ranging from 5K to 40+ mile events - with at least ten different obstacles that are guaranteed to get you fit AND messy!  There are even kids races and women only events!

One of the things that intrigues me most is that when you are gearing up for a Spartan Race, you can prepare with a daily workout, along with weekly motivational newsletters and blogs that encourage you to reach deep down and get muddy!  For answers to your frequently asked questions check out this link: http://www.spartanrace.com//spartan-race-obstacle-course-faq.html

 "It's really as simple as signing up, showing up and never ever giving up"  Some participants have even called it a life changing experience... 

 

Personally, I'd be willing to corral the boys to watch Robyn and Wayne compete in a race like this... and with races popping up all over Canada and the US, there is sure to be one near you!

Are you up for getting down and dirty with your race?  Check out the Spartan Race website to see when the race will be near you!

I need to get in shape. Now that spring is here and summer is approaching, I need to start running again. This sounds cool.
I don't know if I could handle this but I'd like to watch.
