about the event

In Palmerton, you'll conquer Pennsylvania’s iconic Blue Mountain, a legendary Spartan venue known for challenging racers year after year. This time-honored course demands resilience and grit, making it a favorite among Spartans. Race through dense forests and scale a rugged hill crafted to challenge even the elite. If you’re strong and determined enough, you’ll be rewarded with amazing views of the Poconos from the top – and then your challenging descent begins. Don’t race alone. Invite your friends and family to cheer you on. Spectators can take the chair lift ride to the top for jaw-dropping views of the course and surrounding area.

This weekend also features Spartan Trail Race.
