about the event
In Palmerton, you’ll scale Pennsylvania’s Blue Mountain, which has tested Spartans year after year and is one of our longest standing venues for a reason. Run in and out of dense forests as you scale the rugged hill designed to test even elites. If you’re strong and determined enough, you’ll be rewarded with amazing views of the Poconos from the top – and then your challenging descent begins. Don’t race alone. Invite your friends and family to cheer you on. Spectators can take the chair lift ride to the top for jaw-dropping views of the course and surrounding area. Put yourself to the test at this “must race” event.
This weekend also features Spartan Trail Race.
