The challenge isn't how far you run.
It's about how high you climb.
5,000m of vertical gain over 5 days
this October, 2026.
Take on the ultimate climbing challenge anywhere in Australia.
Stairs, hills, trails, treadmill — climb it your way.
This isn't your usual challenge.
Your mountain might be a hill. A stairwell. A treadmill at 6am. It doesn't matter where you climb — it only counts going up.
Pick any week in October. Climb 5,000 vertical metres over five back-to-back days, solo or with a team. Raise $500. With every dollar raised going to the Leukaemia Foundation to support Australians battling blood cancer.
