If you are up for a tough challenge, join me and my team (ROBZFITNESS) for the annual Fight For Air Climb at the Bank of America (BOA) Building in downtown Tampa! All proceeds go to benefit The American Lung Association in the fight for air. For more information, please click on the following link http://action.lungusa.org/site/TR?fr_id=2440&pg=entry.
Bank of America Building?
That’s right! It’s a race up the stairwell from the ground all the way to the top floor! It does not matter how you get there, as long as you go up the stairwell. Yep, No Elevator! You can run, walk, or pull your way to the top.
How many Flights, Floors, Steps, and how high?
84 Flights, 42 Floors, over 900 Steps, and 577 ft high!
When?
On March 26, 2011, hundreds of people will huff and puff their way up the 42 flights in the Bank of America Plaza in downtown Tampa. This is more than your same old 5K; this event takes people vertical! Whether climbing for a winning time or simply to cross the finish line in honor or in memory of someone with lung disease, this event is a great way to challenge yourself physically. We guarantee that all finishers will have a new-found respect for healthy lungs!
