Spartan Trail su utrke u trail trčanju koje organizira kompanija Spartan.

U Hrvatskoj je Spartan Trail utrka prvi put održana 2023. u Dubrovniku.^[1]

O Spartan Trail utrkama

Utrke je pokrenula kompanija Spartan, najveći svjetski brend izdržljivosti^[2] i vodeća svjetska kompanija u kategoriji extreme wellnessa^[3], koja organizira OCR utrke Spartan.^[4]

Spartan je 2017. pokušao kupiti UTMB Mont-Blanc, najprestižniju svjetsku trail utrku.^[5] Prva Spartan Trail utrka održana je u listopadu 2018. Spartan Trail serija (event series) prvu sezonu imala je sljedeće godine. Utrke su bile u SAD-u i jedna u Kanadi.^[6]^[7]^[8] Prva sezona koja je imala utrke izvan Sjeverne Amerike bila je 2020.^[9]^[10]^[11]

Prva sezona Spartan Trail svjetskog prvenstva trebala je biti 2020., ali je otkazana zbog Covid-19 pandemije, nakon što je samo 1 od planiranih 6 utrka održana. Tako je prva sezona Spartan Trail svjetskog prvenstva bila 2021.^[12]^[13]^[14]^[15]^[16]

Prateći korporativni trend koji je 2016. pokrenuo multinacionalni UTMB sa pokretanjem brenda "by UTMB" i internacionalizacijom UTMB brenda licenciranjem brenda drugima inozemnim utrkama sa UTMB International^[17], i kupovinom^[18]/preuzimanjem^[19] UTWT-a, Spartan se udružio sa već etabliranim trail utrkama u svijetu pri stvaranju Spartan Trail svjetskog prvenstva. Neke Spartan Trail utrke su potpuno nove, kao npr. utrka u Dubrovniku kojoj je to ujedno i prvo izdanje ikad i one su uglavnom samostalne utrke, odnosno ne boduju se za svjetsko prvenstvo.^[20]

Radi se o privatnom događaju, odnosno privatnom natjecanju, koje je osmislila i organizira privatna kompanija koja nema službenu federacijsku vrijednost i na kojem niti jedna reprezentacija neće nastupiti.^[21]

Utrke Spartan Traila dijele se u dvije kategorije: ULTRA (utrke duljine 50k i više) i TRAIL (utrke duljine do 49k).^[22]
