The American Lung Association of Arizona is gearing up for a fundraiser this fall that will have participants bounding up the stairs at downtown Phoenix’s Renassiance Square.
“Climb Phoenix” is a “vertical road race” that will have individuals or teams climbing the staircases of the Square’s two towers, for a total of 1,272 steps.
The group had planned a similar event last year, but it was canceled for some reason. This year’s stair-climbing event, scheduled for October 25, is still under development: A Lung Association Web site states that no money has been raised yet, but there’s an “early bird” special for participants who sign up before October 1.

Our work is funded by readers like you who make voluntary gifts because they value our work and want to see it continue. Make a contribution today to help us reach our $30,000 goal!
The cost is a bit steep: $35-$50 for the registration, plus a $100 donation by the day of the race. If you donate $150, you get the bitchin’ T-shirt seen below.
