Hustle Up The Hancock, A World Class Stair Climb

[justleesa]

Just heard about this on the news. a great way to stay fit in the non-scuba months ....anyone fit enough to take the challenge?​

If I were here I'd do it...just don't ask me how long I'd take ​

Dates: 2/25/2007

Why take the elevator to the 94th floor observatory when you can take the stairs? The 10th annual Hustle Up The Hancock features both full and half building climbs that will raise funds for our charitable partner, The American Lung Association of Metropolitan Chicago. Advance registration is required. Registration starts November 1st at www.lungchicago.org.
Note: The observatory will be closed to the public until the event concludes at 3pm.

I'm afraid we don't have anything nearly that tall in my neck of the woods. Sounds like a workout, though.

That's the idea I swam for life and breath in grade school, great cause

That would be cool! I know on the stair climber at the gym I can get 75-80 floors in 30 min. I wonder how they start this, is it just a "herd climb" or do they space people out so they can actually "hustle." I see the 94 floor division sold out in 31 minutes---WOW!

When they show it, it looked like they let them up one or two at a time.
