How do I enter a speed climbing challenge?

Climb the route on any wall in the LearnSpeedClimbing directory inside the challenge window, post the run publicly, then submit your name, the wall and the link to the post. Your fastest run in the window is your entry.

Does it cost anything to enter?

No. The monthly time trial is free and open to anyone, on any speed wall in the directory, with no membership required.

Do competition results count toward a challenge?

No. Official competition results and admin-entered records are excluded; a challenge board is built only from community-submitted training runs.

Your time

Seconds, as the clock read it. Speed times truncate, so 6.429 is 6.42.

Reaction time (optional)

Beep to leaving the pad, if your system shows it. Under 0.10 is a false start.

Timing systemi

Pick the box that timed you.

Link to the post

The Skool or Instagram post showing the run. It has to be public: it is what a time gets validated against.

This form is for adults; submit on behalf of youth athletes. Every run is reviewed automatically and published unless the wall makes the time impossible. We read the clock where we can, and where we cannot the run says self-reported. We store only what you enter here.

Only community runs count here; competition results have the global board. Winners are announced in the community.

Race the month.
