2026 Pull for a Purpose benefitting Special Olympics Utah
It's not about the truck. It's about who you're pulling for.

Who's On Your Rope?
The Pull for a Purpose Truck Pull isn't about the truck—it's about the people pulling beside you and the athletes you're pulling for.
Every team that takes the rope helps create opportunities for Special Olympics Utah athletes with intellectual and developmental disabilities to train, compete, build confidence, and experience the joy of belonging. Together, we're proving that the strongest teams aren't defined by how much they can pull, but by the purpose that brings them together.
Whether you're representing your company, your first responder agency, your school, your family, your team, or your community, every step forward helps create a more inclusive Utah—one where every athlete has the opportunity to discover their potential, showcase their abilities, and inspire us all.
Because it's never been about the truck. It's about who you're pulling for.
