I usually refrain from swear both in life & on forums but.

I'M FUCKING LIVID.............

Just heard Spartan races have changed the date & venue of the Midlands Super Spartan to the Sunday. THE SAME FUCKING DAY I'M DOING THE PARA'S 10 RACE.

WHAT A SET OF WANKERS............

Apparently we'll be getting an email on Monday to confirm this. That's 13 days before the bloody race.

Blood pressure is through the roof & I feel like fucking kicking something very hard.

No not good.

Now I've vented my spleen on FB & calmed down a bit it could be a good thing. I can now go into the Para's 10 fully refreshed & fuelled. No need to pussy foot around the Super Spartan to make sure I don't get injured or over exert myself & can't recovery fully enough for the next days racing in the Para's 10.

They must have known ages ago that something was happening. Can't see the military base that the Spartan race was being held at cancelling the event at the drop of a hat. They would have given them prior warning because Spartan Race has found a new location to hold the races. And its a loss of extra revenue for the military which they would not want to loose.

Bummer dude.

You never know with venue's. Yes, they can and will drop you at the drop of a hat.
Hope it all works out.

To be on the safe side I managed to find two online & bought those. Had that needle a very long time, bit of a memento from a previous job.

Just had an email from Spartan Race HQ.

Reebok are now the race sponsors ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

Not happy enough with Crossfit they are now going to bastardize obstacle course racing.

Can't wait to see the commercials :roll:

Slipped even whilst wearing spikes & now have a sore wrist. Not impressed.
