  Seattle........The Emerald City.........Home to the Space Needle,  Pike Place Market and the 2025 Spartan Pan American Championship Race Weekend. It was held on September 13 - 14 2025 at the Meadow Wood Equestrian Center in Monroe, Washington. The weekend included the Pan American Beast Championship as well as a Super and Sprint race. There was also a Teddy Bear Crawl that raises money to provide teddy bears to children in hospitals for comfort and companionship. 

                                  Venue & Logistics 

  As I was traveling from Charleston, West Virginia after participating in the Trifecta World Championship, I had to fly from Charleston to Charlotte, NC and then catch a flight from there to Seattle. My flight home was from Seattle to Orlando, Florida. I used Alaska Airlines for the trip home and, in my opinion, they are the best airline I have used to date.    

Monroe is just north of Seattle and about an hour from the  area attractions Seattle is known for. Pike Place Market, where the first Starbucks was opened, as well as the Space Needle and the Seattle – Tacoma International Airport. As in any metropolitan area, the traffic can be heavy, so leave yourself additional time to navigate to your preferred destination. Monroe  isn't a large town, so hotel and dining options are limited. I opted  to stay in Everett, Washington. Everett is about a half hour drive  and a fairly easy one to and from the venue area. Everett has more options for dining and hotels, so that seemed to be the better option for me.

 

              Course Conditions, Obstacle Layout & 

               Deciphering The “Spartan Code”

 

  If you do enough Spartan Races, you will find that Spartan speaks in code. For example, when you see them say “Flat & Fast” when advertising an event, that doesn't mean it's an easy one...... and  this venue is a prime example of that. While it is flat, what they  don't tell you is that part of the course is near a river that has many smooth oval shaped stones the size of a large grapefruit. Trying to navigate them was an adventure as the footing is  uneven and very trying on the ankles. More then a few racers had ankle and foot injuries on that part of the course. But the one positive was watching the Salmon swimming in the river and as a native Floridian, I have never seen that in person before then. The course itself is a mixed bag of  terrain including mud, stones, water crossings as well as a large meadow with both grass and hard pan earth. The Beast race itself started with 4 Foot Overwalls, Hurdles, Monkey Bars, 6 Foot Wall, Atlas Carry and on to Inverted Wall. Then come the Super/Beast obstacles of Stairway To Sparta, Irish Tables, A Log Carry, Over Unders & Beater. Then Plate Drag, 7 Foot Wall, and the dreaded Olympus. Olympus has always been an iffy obstacle for me as it is a very taxing one on the body. Today, the Spartan Gods blessed me and I was able to complete it and once I do that, I know a clean race is within my grasp. Then on to bender, 8 Foot Wall, Twister and a combined Sand Bag Carry/Barbed Wire Crawl. They used this same combination in West Virginia the week prior and I think it's growing on me. On to Tyrolean Traverse, Rolling Mud, DunkWall, Slip Wall, Sand Bag Carry#2, Barbed Wire Crawl #2, Vertical Cargo, Bucket Carry and Armer. Then Multi-Rig, Herc Hoist, Helix, Z Wall and Spear Throw. At this point, I'm running a clean race and when they place the Spear Throw near the end of a race, that usually isn't good. The Spear Throw requires just the right amount of both strength and finesse and when you're tired, both of those things in unison are hard to come by. So I approached the fencing and retrieved my spear, took a deep breath and let it fly..........I hit the target on the low right side and knew at that moment, I just ran a clean Pan American Beast Championship race!!!! A fellow Spartan at the Spear Throw congratulated me and my response was “If I have a heart attack between here and the finish line, please carry me across so I get credit!!!” LOL!!!!! The final two obstacles were Rope Climb and A-Frame Cargo. The one obstacle omitted from the race this year was Monkey In The Middle. It has been a staple at this venue for many years and when I finally get to experience this venue, they don't have it....well, maybe next year. 

                  Angering The Spartan Gods, 

       Is The Quest for 13 Trifectas In Jeopardy               

                      & My Final Thoughts        

 

   As I was floating back to the Spartan Member Tent basking in the afterglow of my clean race, I still had a Sprint race scheduled later in the day and was preparing for that. I had decided to use the Sprint as a victory lap for a well run Beast race and that was  when I must have angered the Spartan Gods. I began my Sprint with no issues, but about a third of the way in, I started to feel funny and not too long after that, I was sweating and the chills began. I walked the rest of the course, tried the Spear Throw & failed, then drove back to the hotel. I showered, got a bite to eat and went to bed, hoping for the best. Woke up the next morning coughing, with the sweating and chills even worse....and I had to fly back to Florida later today!!! I had to bail on the Super and drove back to the airport in Seattle for the long flight home. I  wasn't the only person on that plane suffering with the same thing and that plane sounded like you were in an airborne TB ward. I make it back to Orlando and finally home where my wife was waiting with a COVID test. I took it and you guessed it..  I'M POSITIVE!!!!! I had a race scheduled that next weekend in Indiana at the Badlands Off Road Park. I ended up spending the next five days in bed battling COVID and had to bail on the Badlands race. I did end up recovering, but it took me two weeks before I could even think of running another Spartan Race. In    missing both the Badlands Trifecta Weekend and the Idaho Beast, I now know I have a zero percentage of error. I have to make the rest of  my scheduled races to make my goal of 13 Trifectas in a season. Will I do it, can I do it, will the Spartan Gods allow me to do it.......stay tuned to find out sports fans!!!! Even with that happening to me, I wholeheartedly recommend this race as the Seattle area has a multitude of things to offer. The food, tourist attractions, National Parks and Vancouver, British Columbia is but a ferry ride away from the Seattle area. For me,  one of the funny things about Seattle  was driving in the car and picking up    the Vancouver radio stations and hearing how they talk about us  and the good old USA. As far as the race and venue, there isn't too much they have to do as it was a very enjoyable race weekend other then bring back Monkey In The Middle!!!! This venue also has won my coolest venue medal of the year award for the Pan American Beast medal. It will be interesting how Spartan  handles the specialty medals for next year with the changes they have implemented. So, until my next report from the lone star state and Dallas, Texas, this is your OCR Kings reporter at large, David Best, bringing you all the “BEST” Spartan offers us!!!!!!!

2025 Spartan Trifecta World Championship West Virginia Race Review

                             Race Review

Country roads....take me home....to the place....I belong....which was the 2025 Spartan Trifecta World Championship that was held in Glen Jean, West Virginia the weekend of  September 5 – 7, 2025. This was the first time in the history of Spartan Race that the Trifecta World Championship has been held outside of Sparta, Greece. The host venue was the Summit Bechtel Reserve or “The Summit” for short. It is a unique Scouting facility with an expansive main property spanning over 10,000 acres. This venue, in my opinion, is the best all around venue location in the United States as it has everything we Spartans require for an unforgettable race experience. The infrastructure (showers & toilets), as well as the property itself including hills, valleys, streams and other natural as well as man made obstacles (the suspension bridge) make this a fun and changeling venue to conquer. There were a total of  over 8000 Spartans that competed over the three day event that included a Sprint on Friday, a Super and an open Sprint on Saturday and the Beast on Sunday to conclude the race weekend. As I have never competed in an event of this magnitude before, I didn't know if I was going to like the one race per day  format......BUT I LOVED IT!!!!!! In a perfect world, I wish all the Spartan race weekends could be done in the same manner, but the time and financial constraints won't allow us to do so. Being able to complete one race a day and then be able to concentrate on your recovery for the next day's race can't be underestimated. As we had Spartans from all over the world here competing, I also learned that the European Spartans rule the roost. After the Sprint event was held on Friday, multiple European Spartans complained about the rules and starting times. In turn, the starting times for the remaining races for the weekend were reconfigured to suit them.

 I will go over the rules they didn't like in the obstacle section of the review. I also decided to run in the age group competitive division as I thought, lightning could strike and who knows, maybe I podium at the World Championship.....Spoiler Alert, lightning didn't strike, but I didn't come in last in my age group either (LOL).  

 

                            Venue Logistics,

                          Travel Information

                       & Opening Ceremonies

 

 West Virginia isn't the most traveled to state in our country, so direct flights to Charleston are limited. I was lucky to find a direct flight from Orlando, Florida to Charleston, West Virginia on Breeze Airlines that departed on Thursday morning. That was  perfect for me as I could fly in and partake in the opening ceremonies that were held in Charleston along the  Kanawha River at Haddad River Front Park. The park is located about 10 minutes from the Charleston airport which made attending very convenient. The opening ceremony included an athlete briefing, an introduction of the elite athletes, a parade of nations as well as a virtual map of the Sprint course we were to tackle on Friday.

 Virtual maps were also released the night before both the Super and Beast races so we Spartans could plot our race strategy for the coming races. A total of 28 nations were represented with 5% of the racers being elite, 47% being in the age group category and 48% competing in the open category. 75% of the participants were men and 25% were women.

After the opening ceremony was over, I was off to Beckley, West Virginia and the hotel to prepare for  the coming race weekend. The trip from Charleston to Beckley takes about 90 minutes and is an easy ride on the interstate. Just to warn you, West Virginia loves to collect tolls along the route and there are two toll booths on the route. Beckley itself has many hotel and dining options which make it convenient and Beckley is only a 20 minute ride to “The Summit”.

 

                             The Race Weekend

 

 The Sprint race times began at noon on Friday, so I made sure to be there well before to hit the merchandise tent to pick up my  championship race swag....and I'm glad I did. Entry into the venue area began at 11:00 AM and I was the very first person in that  line. They let us in and it was like a large group of  vultures  attacking a carcass. Within an hour, all the championship venue swag was GONE!!!!! It was insane and there were quite a few people showing their displeasure in that merchandise tent as they left empty handed and disappointed. As I  have been dealing with  an MCL injury incurred in Idaho a month  earlier, I was unsure on how I was going to perform....but have no fear, Rocco with Spartan Athlete Services saved my race weekend  as well as the rest of my race season. I contacted him prior to the  event and told him my situation and his response was “I've got  this” and he wasn't lying. Between the taping, soaking and red light treatments, he had me running like a well oiled machine once again. After receiving my pre race treatment, I proceeded to the start line. I'm now going to review all the obstacles for the race weekend and we started with a Four Foot Wall to a Foot Bridge that was corded for us to crawl across the bridge and into the corral. After the start, we meet a Four Foot Wall, Over Unders, a horseshoe shaped Barbed Wire Crawl, Hurdles, Sand Bag Carry, Rolling Mud and Slip wall. We then come to a water crossing that takes us to a peninsula that held Spear Throw. We were required to wear the flotation device provided from the time we entered the water and on to the peninsula, perform the Spear Throw and swim back to the starting point of the swim. We even had to keep the flotation device on if we missed the spear throw and had to perform burpees.

There were a total of four Spear Throws for the weekend and I made three of four (missed on the Sprint). There were two Spear Throw obstacles on the Beast course. Then on to A-Frame Cargo, a Barbed Wire Crawl, another A-Frame Cargo to a new obstacle called Tilting Ladders. It's similar to monkey bars, except there are three ladders on a swivel and they move as you tryto make your away across, similar to Monkey Bars. On to Atlas Carry, Inverted Wall and up a decent hill to Bucket Carry. Now the Super/Beast obstacles begin with Twister, Bender, Olympus, Stairway To Sparta, then down hill to the Tyrolean Traverse. Now comes the serious down hill part to a small creek and a major uphill the West Virginia venue is famous for, we then hit the Suspension Bridge that does move a bit and once off that, we tackle Eight Foot Wall, Plate Drag, Spear Throw #2, a Sandbag Carry combined with a Barbed Wire Crawl (yes, both at the same time), then Armer and to the Laser Pistols.

Now the last time I handled a Laser Pistol was at Spartan Race Jacksonville two years ago. Here, we had to stand behind a table and put three shots in the black part of the target in 30 seconds before moving on. So I step up and my first two shots hit the black part of the target. Do you think I could hit it a third time???? You guessed it, NO WAY! I then moved onto Monkey Bars. Monkey Bars is usually a Sprint obstacle, but it was on the Super/Beast course only and the  spacing of the bars can only by labeled as quite aggressive. If you didn't have your boarding house reach going, you were out of luck. Seven Foot Wall was next, then Ape Hanger (failed both days....I think I have a mental block on it!!!!!), Z-Wall, Six Foot Wall, then a crawl under the foot bridge we had to cross to enter the corral, another Barbed Wire crawl to Rope Climb.

Rope Climb was the obstacle the European racers were complaining about. The rules for this race stated the racer climbs to the top, rings the bell and in a controlled fashion, lowers back to the ground...no dropping from height onto the mats. They were incensed they couldn't just drop like they do in the European races. Then on to a Chain Carry. There were three different configurations for this obstacle. The Sprint was just a chain, the Super was a chain with a cord in the middle you had to duck under and the Beast was a Chain & Sandbag carry. Multi-Rig was next and it had two different configurations. The Sprint had rings to the pipe back to rings and the Super/Beast had rings to the pipe to ropes (made both the Sprint and Super, but slipped on the Beast...tired, I guess.....LOL!!!). The final two obstacles were Herc Hoist ( I was happy as I heard no bags dropped at this event) and Fire Jump to end the race. The alley leading to the Fire Jump was lined with all the flags of the participating nations, which was really cool!!!!

 

                                Final Thought And 

                          Recommendations      

 

 It was a very enjoyable experience to participate in this World Championship. But I will tell you, that wasn't a West Virginia race. I've raced West Virginia three times and this race was a pedestrian race compared to the other two I've completed. I saw online that a Spartan racer took the map from the race in Greece last year and compared the elevation to the race in West  Virginia and the elevations were very similar. It would have been a sight to see what the foreign racers would have done if they ran the West Virginia course from last year that was set up by our friend and Spartan tormentor, Darth Vader AKA Tyler Andrew Spencer!!!! I can only assume they cut down the elevation as there were more obstacles then on a normal Spartan race course. 

After the Beast race was completed on Sunday,  Spartan held their award and closing ceremonies and they were very well done. The only recommendations I could make for the future Championship events is to order MORE Championship Swag!!!! It would have easily sold. The other is to not listen to a few European racers whine that it's not how it's done in Europe.....you're not there!!!!  you're in the good old USA and if you don't like how we do it then don't attend....sit home on your sofa drinking wine and eating goat cheese!!! I did mention earlier in the review about me competing in the age group division. I'm glad I did it once, but never again!!! As I entered the corral for the Sprint, I was looking at the other racers and they had a very serious look on their faces. In the movie, “The Dark Knight” with Heath Ledger as the Joker, he takes a citizen and says “Why So Serious”?!! I so wanted to do the same to the other Spartans in the Corral that weekend!!!!LOL!!!! 

I am now off to Seattle and Spartan Pan American World Championship race weekend, so until my next report, this is your OCR Kings Reporter At Large, David Best, bringing you all the “BEST” Spartan offers us!!!!!

2025 Spartan Boise Race Review

2025 Spartan Boise Race Review

By OCR Kings Reporter At Large 

David Best              

  Confucius say, never go on a whitewater rafting trip the Friday

  before a Spartan Race Trifecta weekend.....but more about that

  in a bit. The Boise Trifecta Race event was held the weekend

  of August 9-10 at the Tom Pence Ranch in Payette, Idaho. The 

  race weekend consisted of a Beast (750 open racers) as well as a

  Sprint (1990 open racers) on Saturday and the Super (1084 open 

  racers) and Sprint (810 open racers) on Sunday. There was also a

  kids race held on Saturday. Spartan had held races in Idaho from 

 2010 to 2020 before taking a 5 year hiatus, but have now returned    

 to Idaho and we can only hope this will be a long and prosperous

 relationship as we need as many Trifecta weekends as we can get. 

                   Venue , Logistics & “The Mistake”    

 There are certain Spartan Race venues that aren't the easiest to

 access from the east coast and this is one of those. I had to fly 

 from Orlando to Salt Lake City and then to Boise and you're only

 asking for trouble when you have to use multiple flights to reach

 your venue. While getting there was no problem, the return flight 

 was a nightmare. I flew from Boise to Chicago and I found out 

 why they call it the “Windy City” as a a large windstorm hit just 

 before we landed and all flights out were canceled, so I got to 

 spend a very uncomfortable night in the O'Hare airport before 

 flying back to Orlando. The venue itself was located in Payette, 

 Idaho, but the nearest town with all the amenities of home was in

 Ontario, Oregon which is about a twenty minute ride from the 

 venue and the Boise Airport is only an hour from both. As I have

 never been to this part of the country before, I decided to make a

 vacation out of the trip and stayed a week to enjoy all the outdoor 

 activities that are available there. Once my daughter heard where

 I was going and what I was doing, she decided to tag along for the

 ride. We flew out on the Thursday before and decided to book a

 day long whitewater rafting trip on Friday to enjoy the Payette

 river, which ended up being “The Big Mistake”. While navigating

 a class 3 rapid called “Trash Can”, the raft nose dived into the 

 rapid and went one way, I went another and my left knee went 

 yet another. I was able to complete the rest of the rafting trip, but

 there was no way in hell I was going to be able to participate in

 the Beast race the next day, but was hoping for the best. I was 

 right, So I volunteered on Saturday and was put on the kids course

 at the spear throw. I received quite the education from those 

 young Spartans and found out the older kids are worse then any of

 the adults I've run into participating or volunteering at Spartan. 

 They are savages!!!! 

          Weather, Course Conditions & Review   

 Throughout this 2025 Spartan Race season, we have been battling

 the rain and wet conditions. I have been praying to the Spartan 

 Gods to give us a dry race.....but be careful what you wish for, 

 because you just might get it. I should know by now that the 

 Spartan Gods are sadistic and only like to make us suffer.....and 

 they never disappoint. The course had very little shade on the 

 Sprint part of the course and no shade at all on the Super/Beast 

 part of the course and you guessed it, it was hot and dry on race 

 weekend. That sun was so hot that it could raise a blister on boot

 leather. I also found out the hard way about the insects in that part

of the country. The locals told me that from the middle of July to

 the end of September, the insects are everywhere. The flies were

 so bad that I would let 5 or 6 flies into the hotel room just to go  

 get ice and it was way worse on the course with the stinging 

 insects. I was able to participate in both the Super and Sprint on  

 Sunday and saw first hand how bad they were. I passed multiple   

 boxes placed on the course marked “DO NOT MOVE, 

 STINGING INSECT NEST”. While I was volunteering on the 

 kids course Saturday, multiple children were stung while on the 

 obstacles as it seems the insects were attracted to the obstacles. 

 The course itself was separated into two sections with the Sprint 

 part of the course laid out on the low land near the river where 

 there was some shade so escape the blistering hot sun and the 

 Super/Beast part of the course which was located on a mesa and

 there was no shade to be found. The were multiple racers that did

 succumb to the heat. The afternoons on both days were 

 unbearable. The obstacle list was as follows: 4 foot over walls,  

 Hurdles, Over Unders, Monkey Bars, Inverted Wall, Atlas Carry,

 Vertical Cargo, Spear Throw, Barbed Wire Crawl, Helix, Sandbag

 Carry, Z Wall, Plate Drag, Multi-Rig, Bucket Carry, Dunk Wall, 

Hercules Hoist, 7 Foot Wall, Bender, Sandbag Carry #2, Barbed

 Wire Crawl #2, Irish Tables, Armer, Farmers Carry, Tyrolene

 Traverse, 8 Foot Wall, Beater, Stairway To Sparta, Log Carry,

 Olympus, Twister, Rope Climb, A-Frame Cargo, Rolling Mud &

 ending the day with Slip Wall. No fire jump due to the windy and 

 dry conditions.

                   Final Thoughts, Recommendations  

                                  & Updates

 I thought the course was a challenging one and well worth the 

 effort of every Spartan to consider for next season. The only 

 thing Spartan should do it to move the event date to the end of 

 September where we could only hope for cooler weather and less 

 insects. As Far as my injury is concerned, I was able to participate  

 in both the Sunday Super/Sprint, I just had to stay away from the

 high walls and low crawls as well as take a few Advil washed  

 down by some Jack Daniels (LOL). I was lucky as I was able  

 enjoy the rest of my Idaho vacation hiking, swimming and 

 enjoying the Sawtooth Mountains. Idaho is a true sportsman's

 paradise. Once I returned home, I found out that I have a grade 2

 tear of my left MCL. Is my dream of 13 Trifectas in a season and 

 attaining Spartan immortality by earning a Spartan Spear over?

 To find out, you'll need to tune in to this same OCR Kings 

 channel......but until then, this is your OCR Kings Reporter At 

 Large, David Best, bringing you all the Best that Spartan  offers 

 us.
