Why challenge ourselves? Because for over 38 million Americans suffering from chronic lung disease,
just taking a single breath can be a challenge.
That's why the American Lung Association host this a one-day "Fight for Air Arena" climb. It's more than the same old 5K. Participants go horizonal and vertical in the Wachovia Arena. On Saturday afternoon, March 20th, participants start twenty seconds apart and scale 1,224 steps up and down the arena. The climb includes the staircases, both up and down, east to west - it's an individual challenge for everyone.
All participants must register ($25 fee) plus raise an additional minimum of $100
on or by March 20, 2010 to be eligible to climb
One of our local WB Firefighter hero's who climbed in full gear!
Each step taken brings the American Lung Association one step closer to finding a cure for lung disease!
