Mt. Kilimanjaro Virtual Treks
The Mt. Kilimanjaro Virtual Trek is an event to raise funds for Zero Prostate Cancer (zerocancer.org). Zero is taking a group to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro in September of 2025, and we are using that trek to help raise awareness and take action to Zero out prostate cancer. All proceeds from these events go to helping people affected by prostate cancer.
Take part on your own by completing the Virtual Challenge and accumulating at least 12451 feet of elevation gain and 41.2 miles of distance between the dates of March 1, 2025 and June 30, 2025. This is the elevation gain and the total distance that is covered on Mt. Kilimanjaro when summiting via the Lemosho Route.
Is the Challenge a little more than you would like to commit to? Sign up for the 5.895-kilometer Run/Walk and complete that distance in a single workout by either walking, running or hiking. The summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro is 5895 meters so you're completing the distance from sea level to the summit!
What's in it for me?
First of all, you'll be helping an amazing organization supporting the cause for a disease that affects 1 out of every 8 men. Prostate cancer can be beat, but the people affected need help and support. Your entry fee goes towards that help!
Second you will receive a cool T-shirt AND a finisher's award upon completion of the event. If you take part in both events, you will get 2 of each!
All awards will be sent out after the participation window closes on June 30, 2025.
Third you get a cool reason to go out and exercise and accomplish a goal or just give purpose to some of your normal workouts.
Finally, you can get an idea of what the team trekking up Mt. Kilimanjaro in September will be doing, all to raise awareness and funds for Zero Prostate Cancer.
