Running Up For Air-Chuckanut Chinscraper

Running Up For Air-Chuckanut Chinscraper is a timed mountain endurance challenge in Bellingham on May 8, 2027, with 12-hour solo and 12-hour relay events starting at 8:00 a.m., plus 6-hour and 3-hour events starting at 10:00 a.m. Participants climb the mountain repeatedly to raise awareness and funds for air quality issues in the Pacific Northwest, and are encouraged to collect pledges for every ascent in support of cleaner air.

The event belongs to the Up For Air series, which stages endurance events in support of air quality initiatives in Washington State. Proceeds go to nonprofits working on environmental solutions, and the events are run with minimal environmental impact, with the aim of raising awareness among participants and the public about the importance of air quality.
