W. VIRGINIA,
USA
Join us for a historic moment as the Trifecta World Championship comes to the U.S. for the first time ever. What was once only held in Sparta, Greece, now unfolds in the rugged mountains of West Virginia. Join elite Spartans on unforgiving terrain and fight for your place in Spartan history.
This world championship event celebrates the Spartan Trifecta—earned by completing a Sprint, Super, and Beast in a single year. Each season, Trifecta Tribe members from across the globe gather for three days of fierce racing, community, and celebration. In 2025, they’ll also be battling for their share of the $30,000 prize purse.
Not chasing a Trifecta? No problem. This weekend features Sprint, Super, Beast, and Kids races for all levels. Whether you're pushing for your first medal or just want to be part of something legendary, there's a course with your name on it. Race your race—and witness history at one of Spartan’s biggest events of the year.
Summit Bechtel Reserve is a breathtaking location renowned for its stunning landscapes, world-class white-water rafting, and leadership-building youth scouting programs. This course challenges you with steep hills, unpredictable terrain, and slick water features, all designed to test your grit. One standout feature of this course is a large suspension bridge that provides stunning views of the valley below.
