All participants who completed the course earned a commemorative medal bearing the word “Unbreakable,” this year’s race theme. Runners move across the ring obstacle in their heat of the Spartan Race Super June 11, 2022, at Training Area 4 on Fort Carson. Plans are underway to host all three of the events at Fort Carson next year, O’Donnell said. The Spartan Race has three events, Sprint, Super and The Beast, and each one awards a separate medal that, when assembled, form a larger medal. Everyone who finishes it gets the medal.” It’s the experience, the success of competing and finishing it. If you take three hours to do the course, take three hours. “The beauty of it is that you can take your time go at your level. “There are Families who come out to compete for the first time,” O’Donnell said. The athletes were of all skill levels and ages from beginner to elite and ages 50-plus to children, said Mike O’Donnell, director of Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation. The June 11, 2022, Spartan Race Super was an 8-mile course with 25 obstacles, and the Spartan Race Sprint took place June 12, 2022, with 20 obstacles on a 3-mile course.
