Spartan Trail is a no-obstacles foot race through rugged wilderness, overseen by legendary race directors from the world of trail running. With a 10k (6.2 mile) race at all events and a Half Marathon (13.1 mile) at select locations, there’s a Spartan Trail for everyone.
Toro Park is a vast, sprawling venue full of iconic Bay Area trail scenery. Picture rolling golden hills, sparse coast live oak offering brief moments of shade, and smooth trails carrying you up and down through pastures and arroyos.
The heat here can be intense, but the trails are fast and the surroundings are idyllic. Make sure to stick around and enjoy downtown Salinas, located only a few miles from the race!
This race is held within a classic Spartan OCR festival weekend.
