topped 3,000 finishers on Saturday in their final race of the year. The last time they did that was November of 2020 at this same event. Back then it took two days to reach that number.

This season averaged 400 more finishers per race than 2024 and marked Savage’s biggest year overall since 2019.

Joe received more than 200 emails after asking for racer feedback. With an assist or two from AI, he responded to every one.

This morning, Spartan Race announced the first change based on that feedback.

From Spartan Race HQ:

“We heard you and we listened. Finisher shirts are moving back to the finish line, and we’re still reviewing everything you shared about medals, distances, and recognition. Just be careful, Joe might make you run the extra mile first to truly earn them. Aroo.”

Last one, I promise.

– Offered at Stadion, Sprint, Super, Beast, and Ultra distances.
– Standard Spartan rules apply with added partner protocols.
– Only one teammate must complete each obstacle (except Fire Jump and Spear Throw).
– Both must hit the Fire Jump and Spear or both serve the penalty.
– Counts toward your Trifecta just like a solo race.
