Group Trail Run Spartan Training

A huge part of Spartan Races is running. If you are looking to train or get ready for a spartan race or any kind of obstacle race or even road race, then it's probably a good idea to get a bit of running in. It will help your legs get used to the constant impact from every step, and help you find out what kind of pace you are capable of while running for certain distances. I started this morning off with a great trail run with some of my friends and family.

Today's goal for me was to just get out there an run. I wasn't thinking about speed or even distance. It's been so hot out lately here in Florida that I dread running out in the heat. Well, having this group of people out there with me made it so much easier to get it done.

I am part of a Obstacle Race Team called Team Dynasty OCR.  We help all fitness levels train for obstacle races and make sure everyone is able to complete these races.  During our trail runs, we like to invite all fitness levels out to run with us as a team. We make sure everyone gets a good workout in by having everyone run at their own pace and meet up at certain check points.  Just like during the races, we like to make sure everyone completes these runs.  Today was no different.  We completed about 5 miles on the trail this morning!  Everyone was able to finish and we all got in a great run.

It's great to have a group of people that has the same passion as you.  They can help motivate you and push you to become better.  It's great to get things done yourself and be self motivated, but by having that support system or group you can count on is great when you are feeling just a bit sluggish.
