About the race
The Poconos Spartan Event Weekend takes place at Blue Mountain Ski Area in Palmerton, PA, on July 11–12, 2026. Racers tackle either a 5K Sprint with 20 obstacles or a 10K Super with 25 obstacles, plus a Kids Race of 1–3 km. The course winds through Blue Mountain’s forests and a rugged hill, with views of the Poconos from the summit before a challenging descent.
Spectators can ride the chair lift to the top for vistas and music and beer gardens. The weekend features a Spartan Trail Race. Core obstacles include Atlas Carry, A-Frame Cargo, Barbed Wire Crawl, Fire Jump, Rope Climb, Multi-Rig, Spear Throw, and more.
Great for teams. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
