Question 8

Select your start heat

Accepted Answer

Spartan Race operates with heat starts. Heat size depends on the race course and will be between 150 and 250 athletes. Heats will leave every 15 minutes after the first heat.Register for "Elite" or “Age Group” heat if you want to be as competitive as possible and race against the best. Select your departure time well depending on your level, your team and your objectives. There is no cut off time but for security reasons, all athletes must be at the finish line within a certain time. If you think you are not able to complete the race in a normal time period please register yourself for an early start to give you the chance to complete the race. Team registration does not guarantee the same starting heats. Once a heat is full, the teams will be grouped only upon request to our customer service ( FAQs ). ARRIVE EARLY: Arrive one hour and a half before your start time. This gives you plenty of time to park, pick up your packet, drop your stuff at bag check, and get warmed up.
