There are many different types of Spartan Races for all ability levels.  Now I wouldn't sign myself up without training for this type of race in advance.  Yes, it is for the serious competitors but also people that generally live a fitness minded lifestyle.  There is also races geared for younger kids.  You can sign up as a solo competitor or enter as a team.

This weekend is one of a select few venues that offer the Trifecta.  The Trifecta Race is done in a single weekend and includes the Sprint 5k, Super 10k, and the Beast 21k.  Along with all the obstacles competitors work their way thru to complete the race.  Successful participants earn a coveted Trifecta medal in addition to individual metals for each event.  The Trifecta metal is considered the Beast.
