Training for this 5th of a VERTICAL MILE or 1567 steps or 86 floors is daunting I must say. Its not just your LEGS that you have to train. Your LUNGS are pushed to the limits. Your MIND tries to talk you out of training. Your BODY wants you to quit. It would be so easy to say no to the training, but taking the easy way out should NEVER be an option. My goal is to finish this climb. I have already won by signing up with the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF). I am helping challenged athletes push forward towards their dream!!! The least I can do for them is push my BODY, push my LUNGS and push my MIND to finish this tall feat of 1576 steps!!! This GOAL has been a year in the making. I am getting ready to take this building on. I don't have a benchmark so this will certainly be exciting and rewarding to see how I can manage. I'm doing a lot of cross training to use all my muscles to prepare - not only the stairmaster but soccer 2-3 times a week, spinning, rowing machine and weight lifting. I hope to be prepared enough to reach the top!!!
Well time to hit the stairs!!! Have great day and climbUp!!!
Please support me as I train to climb to the top!!! I am climbing for the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF) and your support will not only help me but all athletes that have a passion for sports and life!!!
