Spartan Race
Has anyone here trained for/participated in a Spartan race? Hubby is a Sheriff Deputy and some of the guys at work have been trying to get him to join them in entering the local run of the Spartan Race. Hubby is a bit overweight and reluctant to enter with these guys who are all in shape. So I was thinking maybe he and I could train together for next years race. So I’m wondering if any of you have done a Spartan and have any tips, ideas, links about how to train for one. Thanks!

I am doing mine in September and I haven’t been training at all. I will update you as soon as I have done it. Apparently, if you miss or fail to do an obstacle you have to do 30 Burpees. By the way, my race is in Paris on the 19th Sep

Yeah, the burpees is why I want to train. If I fail an obstacle and have to do burpees I’m finished. That’s one reason I told hubby I need him to do it with me. He is 6’2″ and a power house. If he loses the extra weight and trains a little he’ll be able to help me so I don’t have to do burpees. I look forward to hearing how your race goes!
