About the EventMountaineers push their personal boundaries by attempting the 7 Summits - climbing the tallest peak on each of the Earth's 7 continents. Heart&Stroke 7 SummitsTM gives you the opportunity to push your boundaries and reach heights you never thought possible. By climbing the stairs of the 7 tallest office buildings in Toronto's downtown core in one morning you'll not only conquer Toronto's tallest towers, but you also give those who experience cardiac arrest a second chance at life through the vital funds that you raise. Amazing prizes for top fundraisers, fastest to climb the 7 peaks and others will bring an element of friendly competition to the challenge. Each of our towers represents one of the seven tallest peaks on the planet:
How long will it take? Participants take anywhere between 1 hour 30 mins and 3 hours to climb all 7 buildings. Heart&Stroke 7 SummitsTM is not a race and participants are encouraged to complete the challenge at the pace which is right for them. How fit do I need to be to participate? Participants should have a basic level of physical fitness to participate. Visit Get Fit to Climb for a suggested training program. What if I need to rest along the way? While climbers will be guided from building to building, breaks can be taken at any time during the challenge. There will be water and sports drinks at the top of each building and at the 2 major basecamps along the way. |
