Calling all local athletes! You know that in Asheville even the shortest of distances can be challenging due to the hills of the Blue Ridge mountains.

If you’re not from the area, completing the Asheville Super Spartan is a great excuse to visit this wonderful city!

FROM THE RACE ORGANIZERS

Welcome to Asheville: Where the rugged, earthy terrain encapsulates everything the perfect Spartan Race needs.

Nestled in the shadow Mount Mitchell State Park, even the most seasoned racers will realize this is a course that makes the most of what nature has to offer. You may find respite via the grass and forests… but the stones, rocks and gravel will make sure that you remain outside of your comfort zone.

Described as “the San Francisco of the south” by local and Spartan Race veteran Zackary Paben, the city of Asheville teams with art, culture and a hip music scene. The famous bumper sticker in the area stating “Keep Asheville Weird” shows that rolling through mud and climbing hills is all part and parcel of the way of life there.
