July 2023. Races and marathons have become extremely popular all over the world in the last few years, and this is evidenced by the enormous numbers of participants who break the records set so far with each new edition.

37 countries of the world

Especially tempting races are those that require passing through various obstacles, set up to further raise the level of adrenaline for sports enthusiasts. One of those is the Spartan Race, whose guiding thread is that every man can become unbreakable, but because of the modern way of life, he simply forgot how. A leader in obstacle racing that challenges participants to push their own limits, it has experienced global success. The fact that more than 450 races are held annually in as many as 37 countries of the world contributed to the worldwide fame of the Spartan brand, the world's leading company in the Extreme Wellness category.

First time in Croatia

For the first time in the list of host countries, Croatia also shone, which had the honor of hosting the Spartans from July 15-16, 2023. in the city of Sveta Nedelja and experience a completely new sports experience. Participants will have the opportunity to compete in the Trifecta Weekend program, which includes as many as three different tracks, which will awaken true warriors in them. The five-kilometer sprint course provides a classic 20-obstacle race experience, and is performed by relatively easy trail running on terrain with no road, water and mud. It also includes wall climbing, wire crawling, monkey bars, javelin throwing and more.

Race obstacles

There are 25 obstacles on the 10-kilometer Super course, which are more difficult compared to the shorter Sprint course. In order to successfully overcome it, the Spartans will still need a slightly better strategy and a stronger pace due to the more demanding path they have to go through in order to successfully reach the goal. The Beast trail, as the word itself suggests, is a beastly path, 21 kilometers long, with as many as 30 different obstacles. Since only the strongest Spartans dare to fight the beasts, the goal of this course will show who is truly worthy of the throne. As an additional part of the weekend, Spartan Kids will be held, a race for children that allows the youngest Spartans to race at different distances with increasingly difficult obstacles. With good fun that will not be missing, along the way they will gain a great deal of courage and mental strength.

Race Festival

"I am glad that we were able to bring the Spartan race to Croatia. Our idea is to make Trifecta Weekend in the form of a festival. I hope that this is just 'breaking the ice' within Croatia, especially on the part of Sveta Nedelja, because we like to be the first in everything. I think this is a good step forward and I hope that other regions in Croatia will also have the opportunity to organize such an event. I believe that this is one of the best things that can be experienced. I will definitely participate in all three races because they are held in my 'own backyard', said Dario Zurovec, mayor of Sveta Nedelja.
