Physically Inspiring Challenges

Our mission is to assist combat wounded veterans. They never take the easy route, so neither will we. We are dedicated to using physically inspiring challenges in our fundraisers. Read our blog to learn the details of our physical challenges and other inside information from American Spartan Inc.

Spartan Hike - Day 1

Update from a hiker: Saturday, Feb 12, 2011
Day 1 kicked off at 7:08am on Saturday, February 12th, just as planned.  Seven men with a common goal and purpose on their minds took the first steps of a 425 mile journey. Today’s 19.2 miles went by quickly and pain free. We got to our campsite at Half Moon Bay and built a fire to prepare dinner and stay warm. As boys from Southern California, the 30 degree evening temperatures of Northern California at are not pleasant. We all commented that through the 60 plus years of infantry experience in the Marine Corps, this was the first fire any of us had ever seen in the "field".
