However, this past weekend all eyes were on Spartan Race with five different races in three locations over the weekend it was the weekend of Spartan.


Spartan Race Stadium Race – Citi Field

Spartan Race returned to Citi Field home of the New York Mets baseball team. This races stadium sprint was a lightning fast race through the grounds. Spartan Race teammates Hunter McIntyre and Nicholas Alexander battled it out for the top spot. On the women's side it was a tight race between Cassidy Watton and Jackie Landmark with less than 10 seconds separating first and second place. We asked McIntyre about the event,

“It's great to be home with people I love at a race I love. Stadiums continue to be the most fun and dynamic kind of obstacle racing out there, I can't wait for the next one!”
