Event Overview
The Tunnel to Towers Arena Climb - Somerset is a commemorative event held at TD Bank Ballpark in Bridgewater, New Jersey. The event is part of a series created to honor the memory of those lost on September 11, 2001, specifically firefighter Stephen Siller, and to support military members and first responders. Participants traverse the stadium aisles and concourses in an organized physical tribute.
Course Details
The primary route involves following the aisles through the stadium seating. Participants start in Section 1 and move up, down, and around the stadium at least five times, covering approximately 2,200 feet of track. The event is timed by a professional company, though participants are encouraged to move at their own pace. For those who prefer not to use stairs, there are designated flat walking areas on the concourse, which is wheelchair accessible.
The following registration categories are available:
- 5 km Adult Registration
- 5 km First Responders & Military Registration
- 5 km Youth Registration (13 to 17 years)
- 5 km Child Registration (12 & Under)
Participation and Logistics
This is a challenge by choice event, offering several bailout locations at the top of each aisle for those who do not wish to complete the full climb. Water stations are located at the start and end points of each round. First responders are permitted and encouraged to wear their turnout gear during the climb. All pre-registered participants receive an event T-shirt and a finisher's medal, which are distributed at the finish line. Medical assistance and medics are stationed on the premises for safety.
