Limerick Spartan Sprint

Limerick Spartan Sprint 2026 takes place on 9 August 2026 at Limerick Racecourse in Patrickswell, County Limerick, Ireland. The event is a Spartan Sprint obstacle course race with a confirmed 5 km course and 20 obstacles.

This is a compact Spartan format rather than a full Trifecta Weekend. It is designed as an accessible entry point into Spartan racing, but still keeps the core OCR challenge: running, strength-based obstacles, mud, carries and the need to keep moving under fatigue.

The event suits first-time Spartan participants, returning OCR athletes who want a shorter race, and runners looking for a structured obstacle challenge in Ireland. It is also notable because the same Limerick Racecourse venue is connected with the 2026 OCR World Championships weekend in Ireland, which gives the location extra OCR relevance.
