Hosted by Dismas House of Indiana, this unique 2-mile obstacle course combines physical challenges with powerful moments of reflection, encouraging participants to consider the barriers many returning citizens face and the role community plays in creating second chances.

Along the way, you'll climb, crawl, carry, balance, and overcome obstacles that symbolize resilience, perseverance, and hope.
