 CLIMB Events
Stairclimbs are a great way to challenge yourself—whether your goal is just to cross the finish line or to win the challenge—you will walk away with a new found respect for your lungs!  Come join the fun at our open practices at the North Charleston Coliseum.  Click on the Practice tab for dates and times. You are welcome to attend one free trial practice before registering. Registration is required for a second practice. 

 Why Should You Climb?1
Your support helps the American Lung Association in the Fight for Air. With lung disease on the rise, we are fighting for research that will find a cure for tomorrow. We are fighting for those who can’t quit smoking and those who shouldn’t start. We are fighting for lungs that burn from exercise rather than from ozone. We are fighting for asthma education to stop children from dying from asthma attacks. We are fighting for laws that improve air quality both inside and out.

And we won’t breathe easy until we win the fight.
