This event is a fundraiser, not a fitness competition, with 100% of the money raised going to the First Responder or Military BFit host charity selected by the participant. Participants of all fitness levels are encouraged to join. Each participant is required to fundraise a minimum of $300.
Build a team of up to 10 and participate in the 10th Annual BFit Challenge! Select one of the three divisions available:
- Firefighter and EMT Division
- Law Enforcement and Military Division
- Community, Family, and Friend Division
Fundraise at least $300 per person on your team (e.g., a team of 4 would need at least a total of $1,200) to participate.
The event is a 6-level stair climb throughout TD Garden and the Verizon Tower. All fitness levels are encouraged — participants can run or walk the climb.
Raise the most money in your division, as an individual, or as a team to win a Bruins Prize!

Do I need to fundraise the $300 minimum to participate?
Yes, those who do not raise the $300 minimum are not valid to participate.
How does fundraising work as a team?
If you are part of a team, you can fundraise individually or as a team -- it is up to you! The only requirement is that the overall fundraised amount for the team is equivalent to $300/team member. IMPORTANT: TEAMS DO NOT HAVE TO FUNDRAISE JUST $300 TOTAL; A TEAM'S TOTAL MUST EQUAL $300 PER MEMBER ON THE TEAM!
What if I don’t fundraise the $300 by January 25th but still want to participate?
You have the option to pay up front at the help desk on the day of the challenge.
