Vegas Challenge: Get Stair Healthy And Scale The STRAT
If you have an elevator at your work or residence, you might be using it mostly out of habit. But there are many reasons for Las Vegas residents to opt for the stairs instead. And the The American Lung Association just gave us another one.
National Take The Stairs Day is on January 10. And this year, Las Vegas is celebrating with a training kick off to one of the city’s most awesome events.
It’s the annual Scale The STRAT marathon. Actually, it’s a STAIRathon. When people from all over come to Las Vegas to climb the stairs at the STRAT Hotel, Casino, and Tower. All 108 levels. If it sounds hard, that’s because it is. Many of us at Beasley Media Group did it last year. Some of us just barely. 😉
But we are so excited to take part in the event this year. Because it’s fun, it’s challenging, and most importantly because it supports an amazing cause. Scale The STRAT is part of the American Lung Association’s Fight For Air Climb series. This collection of events helps the American Lung Association raise funds for lung disease research, education, and advocacy.
We challenge all of Las Vegas to Scale The STRAT on Sunday, February 25, 2024. To support the American Lung Association and lung health.
And this is a great time to start training for the climb, while adopting healthier habits. It’s as simple as skipping the elevator and taking the stairs at work, in your apartment complex, or even the next time you go to one of our local stadiums or resorts.
It’s also a great time to register for the Scale The STRAT event. Because the American Lung Association is giving a $15 registration discount for two days only. Usually $35, participants can register during the promotion for just $20. All they have to do go to ScaleTheSTRAT.org and use the code TAKESTAIRS24.
The discount code is valid beginning January 10 until January 11, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. After that those who want to join can still register for the usual price. Registered climbers must also make a minimum fundraising pledge of $200 to support the cause. And personal fundraising coaching is available online and through Lung Association staff. So it’s easier than you think.
Thank you to the STRAT Hotel, Casino, and Tower for donating their facility, staff and services for the event. And thank you to Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield for once again being the presenting sponsor at the event.
Save the date! February 25, 2024. Hope to see you there! – Wendy Rush
