MICHIGAN SUPER AND SPRINT WEEKEND
MICHIGAN INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY, BROOKLYN MI
Spartan Race is making its way back to the iconic Michigan International Speedway. Opened in 1968, this venue hosts several NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races, including the FireKeepers Casino 400 and the Pure Michigan 400. The track and its surrounding property boasts 1,400 acres of terrain. As one of the flatter courses on the Spartan circuit, expect a quick, obstacle-heavy course, placing an even bigger burden on obstacle failures and the time spent destroying burpees. After all, it's only fitting that this "Speedway" provide a fast and furious race.

WHAT TO BRING
Your ID
Barcode (print or save your registration barcode to your phone. Click here for instructions on how to find it.)
Towel & extra (dry) clothes
Recommended: Headlamp and Camelback
WHAT NOT TO BRING
Outside food and drink (racers, fuel for the race is OK), Negative Attitude
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.
