Event

Climb 89 is a hill-repeat Everesting event held in early December 2025 in Richland, WA. Participants repeat a single climb on an out-and-back course as many times as they can within the event window. A timing chip on the bib and a timing system along the course are used to track laps. The event is limited to 100 participants. Entry fees cover the event, food, snacks, and a finisher award based on laps completed. A $50 prize is available for any course record that stands when the event ends.
