Ponderosa Polar Challenge 2026

This is a unique endurance event set against the stunning backdrop of the Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort right outside of Zion National Park. Whether you’re looking for a fun walk/run or an ultra-marathon challenge you've found the right place. This race is about movement, adventure, and community—not just speed. With distances ranging from 5k to 150 miles, you decide how far you want to go within a 52-hour time limit. This race will feature three different loops (1-mile, 2-miles, and 3-miles) that can be run either direction until you reach the finish for your race distance. Note that the 2 and 3 mile loops can be combined for a longer loop option.
