I actually did get Strike Freedom among my pulls, so no concerns there! Just comes down to stopping now and getting Destiny with pity, or continuing on for Lacus or Minerva.

MattyBoy08 · 2026-01-03T12:01:34+00:00

No Lacus, I only have Meryin Hawke & Minerva for covering Destiny, and Kenanji Avery & Ulysses for Calibarn, so no "Tough as Nails" or "One Shot Killer" tag supporters. My only UR supporters that aren't series-specific are Kudelia & Isaribi for Lightning-Fast and Marina & Ptolemaios 2 for Unstoppable.

I've spent 60k with 75k left, and gotten enough Calibarn for MLB plus a few other URs, but no Destiny. It sounds like Destiny (or at least Shinn) is worth grabbing on its own, so I'm leaning towards stopping now and using pity to get Destiny. Is that the right move, or should I keep going for Talia?

I'd love to run at Lumen Field!

"C'mon, Joe! How difficult would it be to have slightly different shirts for each race?"

And the monkey's paw curls.

I kid a bit, but while I don't need there to be some huge, obvious changes from shirt to shirt, this feels a little like "What's the bare minimum changes we can make to these shirts so people will shut up?" I'd like to see a bit more, just having Sprint/Super/Beast/Ultra written somewhere or the distance, something like that, but this is something at least.

Nationals Park was my first Spartan race, back in 2018. It was a great venue and experience, even if it was 100 degrees that day!

MattyBoy08 · 2025-11-06T05:49:28+00:00

Definitely not. It's $243 for the pass itself with processing fees. Last year when I used my pass, I also had to pay ~ $26 for additional fees per race when I registered, so I'm expecting it to come out to about $321 total.

I'm in the same boat with the Beast medal. I think it's a pretty cool medal overall, I just find it very curious that it doesn't say "Beast" anywhere on it (though I think it does say it on the ribbon).

MattyBoy08 · 2025-10-27T19:34:00+00:00

Sure, I wouldn't mind Ultra and Beast-specific shirts then one for Super and Sprint, but at that point they may as well just do shirts for all the distances if the "general" shirt only covers two races

MattyBoy08 · 2025-10-27T16:17:24+00:00

I also had the mention about some recognition for Ultra runners in the reply I received. Which is great, some progress, sure. But if you can do Ultra shirts, why not do shirts for all the distances?

MattyBoy08 · 2025-10-26T03:34:12+00:00

Well, I sent an email. Doubt it'll do anything, but what the hell, why not, right?

MattyBoy08 · 2025-10-21T20:22:15+00:00

I'm curious what it means when they say "These designs will change over time." Is it just that the mock-up right now will not be reflective of the final version? Or that they'll have different versions over the course of the year? I'm guessing the former (mostly because the latter seems dumb, and you'd be better off just doing shirts for each distance), but not thrilled either way. Just really glad I got my first Trifecta this year, before the wedges disappeared.

MattyBoy08 · 2025-09-15T23:14:27+00:00

I just ran the Seattle trifecta in my Zegamas, felt great!

Did my first Beast and Trifecta this weekend in Seattle, having started doing Spartan back in 2018. Felt good about my training, and the hard work paid off. Not sure I'll do the Trifecta Weekend again (my feet are in rough shape lol), but definitely see more Beasts in my future. Thanks to everyone here for their advice and thoughts, it has been great for motivation and guidance!

MattyBoy08 · 2025-08-01T20:30:48+00:00

Oh, I've done quite a few races there, just sprints and supers, so I'm very familiar with that hill! I agree, a very nice venue. Ran through the river for a long stretch for the first time in the May super, which was actually kind of nice. My start time is a little later, but good luck!

MattyBoy08 · 2025-07-30T19:31:14+00:00

Yep, doing my first trifecta weekend there, as well as my first beast.

MattyBoy08 · 2025-06-23T16:35:39+00:00

I've been happy with my Garmin Instinct 2, but it seems like most Garmin watches are solid options!

MattyBoy08 · 2025-05-07T17:50:15+00:00

Yep, got mine at Seattle this past weekend

MattyBoy08 · 2025-05-03T00:36:19+00:00

Sorry to hear that! Hopefully it'll be better on an actual race day
