Embrace the Autumn Air with the October Climb Time Virtual Challenge
There’s something about autumn — the crisp air, the changing leaves, and the sense of new beginnings — that makes it the perfect season to set fresh goals. This October, we invite you to do just that with the October Climb Time (OCT) Virtual Challenge, hosted by Trail Fridays and proudly sponsored by Fleet Feet Treasure Valley.
What Is the October Climb Time Challenge?
From October 1 through October 31, participants will test themselves by seeing how much vertical gain they can achieve. You can climb steep trails, staircases, or your favorite local hills. Every climb counts. The challenge is about pushing yourself, setting goals, and celebrating progress, no matter where you start.
Every participant will receive exclusive swag, and the top three climbers will win special prizes. Raffle prizes will also be awarded to participants who upload their results throughout the month.
Why Join?
At Trail Fridays, we believe in the power of goal setting. The October Climb Time Challenge isn’t just about racking up vertical feet. It’s about discipline, resilience, and the satisfaction that comes from pushing your limits. These small victories build not only physical strength but also mental well-being.
The challenge also connects people. Whether you are an experienced trail runner, a weekend hiker, or someone looking for a fresh way to stay active, this event invites you into a community that encourages and supports one another.
