Pinkham Notch, New Hampshire – Friends of Tuckerman Ravine, a locally-based non-profit organization, is proud to be staging the 18th Annual Tuckerman Inferno Pentathlon race event on April 13, 2019. Over 200 athletes will compete for prizes and a chance to become the next Tuckerman or Tuckerwoman champion. 

For 2019 we are introducing two new special discount categories to encourage more racer registrations. The first major discount announcement is in recognition of the gender wage gap in the United States.

All individual Elite Women and the All Women Sport Teams will receive a 20% discount off of the base race registration fee.

We are also introducing the inaugural COLLEGIATE division (solo & teams), which will also be discounted 20% when uploading proof of a current student college ID.

You will note that when you choose a Race Division and Team Category your race registration fee subtotal should automatically reflect these discounts.

Otherwise the full race registration fee is $300 for individual Elite racers and $750 for Sport teams composed of 2-5 team members.

The following groups will receive a 10% discount off the base registration. The team captain will need to show proof that s/he qualifies for the discount:

• EDUCATOR (primary and secondary schools)
• MILITARY (active duty and veterans)
• SKI INDUSTRY EMPLOYEE (resort employee)
• FIRST RESPONDERS (Fire, EMS, Police, Search & Rescue volunteers

These other discount categories do not apply on top of the gender wage gap and collegiate discounts.

Finally, we have added a MASTERS division to recognize those athletes 50 years of age and older (as of April 13, 2019) competing in the Tuckerman Inferno. We don't have a discount bracket for Masters racers but hope to offer some special prizes at the awards ceremony in that category.

The Tuckerman Inferno Pentathlon is our major annual fundraising event. This well attended, highly visible endurance race is an opportunity for companies to showcase their products and brands to an incredible group of athletes along with their friends & families - all while showing your support for our mission to preserve and protect Tuckerman Ravine and the fragile eastern slopes of Mount Washington, NH. The following Sponsorship opportunities also include corresponding complimentary one-year corporate membership in the Friends of Tuckerman Ravine:
