About The Challenge Obstacle Run
The Challenge is
#1 - Obstacle Course Fun Run
#2 - A Festival
#3 - A Fundraising Drive
Sponsored by the Jordan Education Foundation, all proceeds go to classroom grants for local schools of the Jordan School District. Last year the Foundation was able to raise about $400,000 for our classrooms, and The Challenge Run is part of what makes that happen. We believe we can make a real difference while having a FUN!! The Challenge allows you to support education by climbing a wall, hurdling a barricade, navigating a 130 foot long -16 foot high blow up obstacle, and slip-sliding down a hill. Come join us for this and a whole lot more!!

Who?
Everyone! Teachers, students, and community members
This is a great family event. This is not the kind of run that you need to train to participate in. It is challenging but it is not excessive or crazy. In addition, you do not have to do all the obstacles. If you don’t want to run through the mud, climb the leaning walls, or brave any of the other obstacles, simply go around. Our age recommendation is for anyone 8 and up. But we have had kids much younger participate (we even had a father carry his baby in a chest harness). Just make sure a parent is running with younger children.
