Race up Boston Place

The building I raced up today...twice...


Yes, that's right twice!! This morning I competed in the American Lung Associations Fight for Air Climb where my team and I raced up One Boston Place. The amount of stairs you ask....789...flights of stairs...82...floors...41!!!! My first round felt great, I was disappointed I didn't push myself more. I had about an hour and half to wait for the rest of our team to go, so I went for a quick breakfast where I had a 'side' plate of corned beef hash(I had never had it and wanted to try it). Unfortunately, my dear friend and teammate had a family dog emergency this morning so I stepped and climbed again with my teammate Elise. So actually I raced up 82 floors today! :) Below are some pictures from this morning...
