Over 600 teams from throughout the U.S. and Canada came to Seattle on Sunday, March 25 to raise money to fight blood cancers at the 26th annual Big Climb at the Columbia Center.

Sammamish resident Jennifer Tenczar finished fifth among the female participants in approximately 10 minutes, 46 seconds.

Shaun Stephens-Whale of Roberts Creek, British Columbia, finished first overall and Courtney Dexter of Seattle was the first woman to finish.

Along with another climb event earlier in the month, the total amount raised was in excess of $2.4 million.

The Columbia Center is 69 stories and has 1,311 steps.
