Fail.
Spartan Race
Published Oct 30, 2025 · Around 1 minute to read

My kids participated in the Spartan Kids challenge in April. It motivated me to sign up for the Spartan race myself. It’s been 4 years since I did one of these challenges.
Plus with the race being in October, I had plenty of time to prepare.
I had a vision of getting back in shape: losing weight, running, lifting. And I did…nothing (well, some lifting).
I did finish the race and attempt all the obstacles (16/20 completed). But my time was abysmal.
There’s no ‘LinkedIn Learning’ moment here. I got lazy and fat.

P.S. I make goofy faces when I’m doing these obstacles. This was the only normal face of myself I could find.
P.P.S. I’m so glad there were no mud or water obstacles.
