The appeal of Spartan Races

In the OPEN category, TEAMs are allowed to participate, and the best part of Spartan Race is that you can form a TEAM with your friends, wear matching uniforms, help each other overcome obstacles, and aim for the goal together!

Overcoming obstacles while running 5K and 10K distances requires both aerobic and anaerobic training.

Races in various categories such as BEAST/SUPER/SPRINT/KIDS RACE are held at various venues in different locations and under different conditions throughout Japan, allowing participants to step up to the challenge of races held not only in Japan but also around the world.


Spartan Race actively communicates through digital media and social media. Regular workout events provide support for experienced competitors as well as beginners and children who are just starting to exercise, and the SPARTAN community network is one of its unique features.
