Prospect Mountain Hill Climb

About the Event

Prospect Mountain Hill Climb offers runners an exhilarating 5-mile ascent up Veteran's Memorial Highway. The route averages a steady 5% gradient, providing a challenging yet manageable climb that tests endurance and determination. As participants push their limits, the scenery transforms from dense forest to panoramic vistas, culminating in breathtaking views stretching over 100 miles.
This event is more than just a race; it's an automatic entry into BUMPS (Boston University Medical Center Hill Climb Series), one of the Northeast’s premier hill climb challenges. By joining Prospect Mountain Hill Climb, runners gain access to a series that celebrates both athletic achievement and community spirit.
Proceeds from this event support vital programs for veterans suffering from PTSD and TBI, as well as initiatives aimed at preventing veteran suicide. Every stride taken contributes to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those who have served their country with honor.
This race combines physical challenge with profound purpose, creating an experience that is both inspiring and impactful for all involved.
