Stair climbing is a great sport that improves the fitness level of each participant and burns more calories than walking or running.

To climb successfully, the American Lung Association strongly urges all participants to train before embarking on the ascent.

To help you prepare, we’ve assembled a Fitness Training Guide with tips, exercises, and a complete training schedule to help you do your best.

As always, be sure to consult your physician before beginning any new fitness routine.

Local Training Session/Practice Climb Info

Thank you for your interest in our upcoming training climbs. Winter trainings are hosted by Certified Personal and Group Trainer and Vertical Mile Veteran, Marcia Yager.

They will take place at 9:30am at UC’s Crosley Tower. The Crosley Tower is located on Martin Luther King Drive between Ludlow and Woodside Gateway. There is plenty of street parking on MLK or see the UC Campus Map for nearby parking garages. We will meet in the lobby of the Crosley Tower.

Bring water, a towel and positive energy!
