WHAT? The Big D Climb is the biggest stair climb in North Texas. Participants race up 52 flights of stairs (1,040 steps) to raise money for blood cancer research and patient services. More than 1,250 climbers raced in January 2013 and helped to raise $200,000 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. January 25, 2014 will mark the event's 6th year at Fountain Place in Downtown Dallas, and our goal is to have more than 1,350 climbers raise more than $225,000. Can we do it? Absolutely! The Big D Climb has the best climbers with the biggest hearts. See you at the top!
WHO? You! If you don't want to try it alone, form a team and challenge your friends, family and co-workers to race you to the top of Fountain Place. Simply click on the link "create a team" on the registration page to climb for a cure together. Racers must be at least 7 years old or able to climb independently. For safety reason, children are not able to be carried.
