With love from Dallas, TX ❤️ Thank you YMCA LA for an amazing virtual event! #stairclimb4LA
Did my 75 floors in DTLA. 2007 steps! I earned my medal!!
Is the climb still on this year?
I'm so glad our friends talked us into flying in from Az to do this climb. I loved it! Thank you Carlos & Elsa #YMCAStairclimb4LA
I am going to be there and see all of my stair friends.
19:58 and a little out of breath
NOW THIS IS REPORTING ,, LOVE YOU ALL AND MISS YOU!
How many water stations will there be this year. Last year there was only two until we got to the top. I’m concerned because we can’t bring in our water & I felt very dehydrated last year. I’m a slow climber so it takes me a while to get up to the top. I’m very excited to return this year. 😊
Hi. Any Firefighters entered?? We are a couple of kiwis wanting to borrow 2 BA sets for the event. Please 🙏🙏
Please skip the "Elevators are for Wimps" t-shirts this year. Very ableist!!!
