Racers will be released in waves of 250 every 15 minutes. You will be notified of your wave start time a few days before race day.

You are advised to arrive 90 minutes before your start time. This will allow you to park, collect your race packet, drop off your baggage, and warm up.

What to wear:

Although there is no dress code in Spartan races, wear what you think will be most comfortable during a race where you will be required to run, crawl, climb, roll under barbed wire and jump through fire.

Some guidelines are:

• Avoid cotton if possible
• Trail running shoes and lightweight apparel that will drain water and mud quickly
• Bring a water pack and race fuel
• It is not recommended to wear new shoes on the day
• Nothing inappropriate please, this is a family event.

What to bring:

• Pre-race: Your photo ID, signed waiver form, and registration Barcode (on your phone or printed off)
• After the race: Cash, a towel and a fresh set of clothes.
• Recommended: headlamp and Camelback
• Things not to bring: outside food or drink (you are allowed to bring fuel for the race), your pets, a negative attitude.

What to collect on the day:

You will receive your Registration Packets, Bib Numbers, Finisher shirts, medals etc. on site at the event. These will not be mailed out before the event.

Spectators are welcome to get front row seats in the festival area to support their friends and family. You'll stay (mostly) out of the mud splatter zone! Entry to the festival costs $20 in advance or $25 on the day, and the pass will give you access to all the stalls and entertainment of the festival village, as well as a merchandise discount card.

Volunteers are more than welcome to get involved.
