Climbing route options
You have 5 climbing route options:
During the registration process, you will be given the option to choose which climbing route you prefer:
- 86 floors—climb the building twice
Climbers seeking the ultimate challenge are invited to climb the building twice. The first half of the climb will end on the 43rd floor, where climbers can access an elevator to return to the lobby.
- Extreme—43 floors wearing a 10 lb. belt
Only 85 slots available
To pay tribute to the clients of Her Justice and the burdens they bear every day, as well as to make their climb more challenging, participants can choose to wear a 10 lb. weighted fitness belt for the 43-flight climb (climbers wearing belts will not be permitted to climb the building twice). The equipment will be provided to climbers (free of charge) at the event, to be returned to Her Justice after the climb.
Note: there are only 85 Extreme Climber slots available, so please register as early as possible.
- 43 floors
- 23 floors
- Virtual—only fundraising; not climbing
If you will not be in New York City on October 23, or would prefer not to climb for whatever reason, you can choose the virtual climb option. In all other respects, virtual climbers are just like "real" climbers in their fundraising practices and they are welcome to attend the event. Virtual climbers are subject to the same registration fee ($50) and fundraising minimum ($100) as actual climbers.
