Big Climb Wisconsin
About this race
From the moment you check in, Big Climb is more than an event-it's a powerful, shared experience.
You'll start your day at Base Camp, a gathering space filled with energy, connection, and activities for climbers of all ages. When it's time for your assigned Climb Time wave, your team will be led to the starting area, where we'll come together for a brief but moving Opening Ceremony-honoring the stories, people, and purpose behind every step.
Then, the climb begins.
Whether you're navigating stadium stairs, ramps, or concourses, you'll be guided by route arrows, high-energy music, and the cheers of volunteers there to lift you up. Along the way, you'll see the names and faces of those we climb for-patients and survivors whose strength inspires every step.
And when you cross the finish line, you'll receive your finisher medal-a symbol of strength, solidarity, and your role in moving us closer to a world without blood cancer.
