Spartan Training Groups were created with the help of the volunteers and Spartan enthusiasts in 2014. These training groups were established in cities and bring together around people with the same love to sports, exercise and adventure. These people were fascinated by Spartan Race from the first moment they try it even they tried before other different sports and races. These passionate Spartans want to be well prepared for next SR. To improve physical fitness and mental endurance they are doing training together in their city mostly in outdoor in any kind of weather condition. In these training groups, they stiffen mutual relationships, create new friendships, and many groups of these people meet outside training in their personal lives as friends who have created their own community of Spartans in a city.
The purpose of establishing STG is not to create elite teams but to help to find the road to the sport for ordinary people.
