| For the third year in a row, CrossFit Eastside will be participating in the Annual Big Climb for Leukemia. The event is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s most challenging event - and a complete quad burner! Last March, over 4,200 people climbed the stairs at the Columbia Center in downtown Seattle, the state’s tallest skyscraper, and raised over $700,000. The 69-flight course includes 1,311 steps, 19 steps per flight and 788 feet of vertical elevation. I will have the choice of either running the stairs and being timed or climbing the stairs at my own pace.
In addition to a challenging workout, the Big Climb gives us the opportunity to fight leukemia. Leukemia, a cancer of the body’s blood-forming organs, is the leading disease killer of children; yet for every child diagnosed, ten adults face this disease. Thanks to research supported by contributions to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, survival rates in both adult and childhood leukemia have dramatically improved.
Please consider supporting us as we climb all those stairs in an effort to fight blood cancers. Thank you! |
