Join Adaptive Sports Partners on Sunday, July 27th, 2025 for our most exciting event of the year, The Martin Wallem ALS Foundation Sunrise Ascent on Mt. Washington, an empowering fundraising event to benefit Adaptive Sports Partners , a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering people with disabilities by building community, confidence, and skills, through sport, recreation, and adventure.

Before sunrise, on Sunday, July 27th, 2025 athletes and their teams will ascend the 7.6 miles of Mount Washington Auto Road, determined to reach the 6,288-foot summit of Mount Washington.

Each team includes an athlete with a disability, and a team of registered crew, who support the athlete as they climb to the summit, fundraise and reach their Team Summit Goal Pledge.  After the teams complete their hike to the summit, registered roadrunners help to transport athletes and their crew in their vehicles back down to the base area.   Together the teams are inspired by the beauty of the sunrise, the majesty of the Presidential Range, and the determination shared amongst them.

The goal for this event is to raise over $62,880 to help fund the operating budget of Adaptive Sports Partners.

  Crew and Roadrunner Registrations open on May 1st, 2025!
