Gladiator Assault Challenge is the Midwest's premier test of endurance, speed, agility, strength, and mental stamina. Gladiator Assault Challenge obstacle courses are a series of physically challenging obstacles (some natural and some man-made) that individuals or teams must navigate. These courses will challenge you with running, climbing, jumping, crawling, balancing, and MUD with the aim of testing overall endurance.
Each participant will receive a Finisher T-Shirt, Gladiator Medal, Finish Line Fruit, and One Beer. (21 and over) Within three weeks of the event, we can not guarantee you a finisher's t-shirt or medal. Oftentimes, we have no shows, which will allow us to get you a shirt and/or medal on the day of the event. Please check at the registration table after 2 pm on the day you run.
The Gladiator Assault Challenge brings an exciting 9.7K, 5K to Boone, Iowa on May 16, 2026. Don't miss this beautiful event!
