If you have never heard of it, The Spartan Race is one of the world’s largest, toughest and most extreme obstacle courses. It is open to anyone who likes a challenge and is split into three different courses varying in difficulty and length. Every year the course travels all around the world and this October it is coming to the shores of Barcelona, closely followed by Valencia in November. The courses on offer range from the Sprint which is 5km long and contains about 15 obstacles, to the Super, 13km containing 20 obstacles and then finally, the extreme, Beast race which is 20km long and typically includes 25 obstacles.
