2026 NorCal Spartan Event Weekend

Late August in Sacramento means the Delta breeze keeps the valley evenings pleasant, so you can trade the clinic for the Mahon Ranch's rugged trails without wilting. After the race, head into Elk Grove for a farm-to-fork plate — the region's tomatoes and stone fruit are at their peak — and cap it with a local wine tasting in the nearby Clarksburg appellation.
