Event Overview
Spartan Trifecta Weekend: Ivory’s Rock takes place on 23–24 May 2026 at Ivory’s Rock, Peak Crossing in Queensland’s Ipswich region. The weekend format offers three main race distances across two days: Sprint 5km, Super 10km, and Beast 21km, alongside a kids event. It is positioned as a Trifecta weekend, allowing participants to complete multiple races over the event schedule.
What the Course Demands
This venue is described as an ancient volcanic landscape with bushland, meandering creeks, and rocky terrain on the approach to the base of Ivory’s Rock. Across the weekend, the obstacle counts increase with distance, from 20 obstacles in the Sprint to 30 in the Beast. Athletes should expect frequent changes in rhythm as running segments are broken up by obstacle stations and terrain features.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits runners who want an obstacle-course race structure with clear distance options from 5km through to 21km, including those planning to take on more than one race in a weekend. The Sprint can work as an entry point for newer participants, while the Super and Beast are better aligned to athletes comfortable sustaining effort over longer durations with repeated obstacle interruptions.
