    ABOUT Mick Gilhooley

    Bairnsdale, VIC

    I first got in to Spartan (obstacle racing)

    3 years ago with entering the 5km Sprint.

    Ive raced every race in Australia since and also races at the Greece Spartan Trifecta World Championships (age group) & Obstacle Course Racing World Championships (Age Group) at Mammoth Mountain in America.


    I've Qualified for the Spartan Trifecta World Championship in West Virginia USA 2025 . Its a huge achievement for me at 51 to qualify as an elite for the event (top 20 in Elite).

    I’ve committed to training 6 days a week for me to be in my best fitness for this event.

    As long as I’m enjoying this sport I’ll give it a crack, and if not, I’ll still have a go cause it’s keeping me fit & healthy haha, A win win for me.


    Thank you for your support
