It purchased Tough Mudder assets for $700,000 and the assumption of debts, including honoring prepaid tickets, which was approved by the bankruptcy court for the District of Delaware. Spartan Race acquired Tough Mudder, which had been forced into involuntary bankruptcy proceedings, in February 2020. ESPN describes the Spartan Race as "a true test of will." Later in 2015, Spartan Race founded the "Spartan Agoge" which is described as a "60 hour physical, tactical, mental and team based training and testing" event, to be held in Vermont twice a year.

The first Spartan Race event was held in 2010 at the Catamount Outdoor Center in Williston, Vermont and represented the city of Burlington, Vermont.

Spartan Race began as a spin-off of the "Death Race", a 48-hour endurance event founded in 2007.
