Question 4

Additional Services in Location & Spectator Information

Accepted Answer

PARKING: There are free parking areas around the event. But we highly recommend to coordinate yourself with friends for carpooling. Find all the information on the Athlete Guide, available a few weeks before the event. BAG CHECK You could drop your stuff to our attempts to the Bag Check and recover after the race. This service is included in the registration price. COLD WASH & CHANGING AREA: After the race you will have access to a water system area in order to remove dirt, mud and blood of your body. Before and after the race a space to change clothes will be provided by the organization. RELIEF AND SUPPLY: A first-aid post will be placed at the end of the race with water, bandages and a loan ambulance service to respond quickly to any part of the course. In the case of an accident, there are race officials posted at every obstacle who can use the emergency radio to summon help immediately. You are allowed to take with your supply of water and food if you estimate you need it. The organization will set up supplies of water on the course but you should not rely only on it to hydrate you. Don’t hesitate to take water, gels, and bars with you AND keep all rubbish with you! Especially for the Super & Beast races we highly recommend to carry a camelback. Spartan Race loves Spectators! As a Spartan Race spectator, you will have viewing access of some obstacles, the start and finish line, the vendor tents, and hot food for sale on the grounds. Enjoy music while watching your friends and loved ones slip and slide through the Spartan course, from the relatively mud-less Spartan Race festival grounds. Raffles, entertainment, spectator challenges, free muddy hugs from Spartan athletes, and all the other festival perks makes spectating all worth while. The next ticket you will want to buy will be a race entry. Yes, but can I get on the course to watch my racer? As for roaming the course or watching each obstacle, each course will have different restrictions. On some ski mountains, you can take a ski lift to the top where there will be obstacles to watch. At ALL events, the festival area is situated within sight of at least 6 obstacles where you can catch your family and friends. My Junior Spartan(s) are in the Kids Race, can I follow them ? Most of the time, the race is designed in order to let the family see all the race. The space is normally close and only our Staff can follow the race and ensure the security of the Kids. So please respect the signage and keep behind the tape.
