Event Description
FEB 15-16, 2020
SAN JOSE SUPER AND SPRINT WEEKEND
DIABLO GRANDE, DIABLO GRANDE CA
According to Miwok and Ohlone mythology, Mount Diablo is the place where the world began.
It’s happening again, and you’re invited.
Under the warm glow of the California sun, Spartans will come together to brave heat and hills on an expansive range of wooded trails. On a low, ancient savannah rich with legend, thousands of Spartans will join in celebration, vie for glory, and enjoy the renewal that only comes after a day of relentless drive.
That, or they will bow at the feet of the unforgiving, blood-red Mount Diablo.
Scenic Diablo Grande is a 30,000-acre ranch, resort, and nature park in Diablo Grande, CA. Just 30 minutes from Modesto, this wide-open space lets Spartans make a complete escape from the madness of modern life—without dropping them in the remotest wilderness.

WHAT TO WEAR
We recommend dressing in performance gear (NOT COTTON). Think compression tights or shorts and breathable tops made from water wicking material. Wear comfortable shoes that you’ve trained in, but beware, they are going to get dirty.
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.
We have all you need to gear up for race day at the Spartan Shop.
