The Hoodoo Challenge: Run To The Top
The Hoodoo Challenge takes place on July 25, 2026 near Sisters, Oregon. The event marks its 10th year and features trail running on forested routes with views from the top of Potato Hill. Runners descend the mountain to a hosted lunch and an awards ceremony held at the Hoodoo Lodge parking area.
A 5K route begins at the Hoodoo parking lot and finishes at the Hoodoo summit. All participants receive a two for one lift ticket voucher for Hoodoo. Dri fit race shirts and trucker style logo hats are available for purchase at checkout for an additional $30; sizes must be specified for shirts. The top male and female finishers in both distances receive a season pass to Hoodoo.
Entry fees listed for 2026 include a price of $65 for the half marathon with a late fee increasing to $80 after June 28, and $45 for the 5K. Junior runners under 18 may enter either race for $25. The races are organized by the Sisters Kiwanis Club and proceeds are designated for charity.
