The JEF Challenge Obstacle Run
The Jordan Education Foundation Challenge Obstacle Run - 2026 takes place on May 9, 2026, at 1985 W 7800 S, West Jordan, Utah. The event is described as an obstacle course fun run, a festival, and a fundraising drive and includes a single listed distance of 2.5 miles.
The obstacle course includes climbing walls, hurdling barricades, a 130-foot-long, 16-foot-high inflatable obstacle, and a slip-slide down a hill. The event is presented alongside festival activities and community participation elements.
The event is sponsored by the Jordan Education Foundation. All proceeds go directly to classroom grants for local schools in the Jordan School District. Last year the Foundation raised nearly $400,000 to support classrooms.
New for 2026, the school with the highest participation will receive a $1,000 school grant. Registration opens January 13, 2026, and closes May 10, 2026. The listed registration fee is $25. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
