LONG ISLAND SPRINT
LONG ISLAND SPRINT, BRENTWOOD NY
For the second time ever, Spartan's will converge on Long Island for the 2019 Spartan Sprint at The Old Bethpage Village Restoration. While this quaint re-created mid 19th century village may be a popular destination for it's peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, Spartans will be experiencing quite the opposite.
With a mix of single track trails, heavily wooded technical terrain, and a course sure to test athletes of all skill levels, Spartan closes out the Northeast race season in style with a gritty Long Island sprint. Prove you have what it takes to be a Spartan, embrace the chill of a November New York morning, and finish 2019 in style.
The Sprint may be our shortest distance race, but it’s still a favorite amongst both new and returning racers. It’s the perfect distance for those looking to start their Spartan journey. The Sprint also allows returning racers a manageable distance to see how far they can push themselves. Delivering 20 obstacles over 3 mi / 5 km, you’ll never run the same race twice. Once you complete the sprint you are 1/3 on your Spartan TRIFECTA: The ultimate Spartan achievement.

In addition to your clothes, consider fuel when planning for race day.
For a Sprint distance you can normally get away with the water stations on course, but for our longer distances (Super, Beast, Ultra) we strongly suggest wearing a hydration pack and carrying energy gels or Clif bars.
