CN Tower climb training log – WWF-Canada office stairwell WWF Canada April 23, 2013 Share: Share This Page: Share with Facebook Share via Twitter Share via Linkedin Share in email This is likely the last team climb session before the big event! The rainy weather prevented us from going outside so we took to the stair well of our office. Location: 245 Eglinton Ave. E Number of stairs: 80 Strategy: Climb up and down as many times as you can in 20 minutes. Heather Well this is convenient. You don’t even have to leave the building to get a great practice session in. This practice was further proof that buddies make practice sessions better. Nothing like cheering each other on to get you through the toughest parts. Likes: This is probably the closest we’ll get to simulating the actual climb as it’s an enclosed stairwell. Dislikes: I cannot BELIEVE how hot it was! And with only 4 of us climbing, I can only imagine how much worse it’s going to be in the actual tower. Rebecca I couldn’t believe how it got so hot so quickly! Made me rethink my climb attire. Mike It’s surprising how fast your feelings can change. 1 minute in: Feeling ON TOP of the world. 2 stairs at a time – BRING IT. 5 minutes in: I can do this forever! I’m such a champ. 7 minutes in: Imagine you press the gas pedal in your car, but it doesn’t speed up at all. Time for 1 stair at a time. 10 minutes in: “Easy, Mike. Slow & steady wins the race”, says James (who doesn’t AT ALL seem to be following that advice, by the way) 14 minutes in: Is that loud raspy sound my breathing? 17 minutes in: Why Mike?! Why did you think this was a good idea!!! 19 minutes in: I’m going to make it!! Stop shaking, legs! Now isn’t the time!!! 20 minutes in: I DID it!!! I’m going to CRUSH the CN Tower (slowly!!)!! Now, reflecting about an hour after climbing, I feel fantastic – so glad I did a little practice! Now I know what to expect the day of the event, and know I can make it to the top. If I can do it, you can too!! Send us pictures of you training for the climb! And if you haven’t signed up, what are you waiting for?
