CN Tower climb training log – St. Clair Ravine

 There’s nothing like a team stair climb to get you motivated. We had almost the whole team out with us and the friendly competition really pushes you harder.
Location: At the end of Heath St., east of Yonge
Number of stairs: 100
Strategy: Climb up and down 12 times = 1,200 steps!

It’s beautiful out here! It’s like running into Narnia!
Likes: Climbing with almost the whole Climb-It Smart team was a great motivator! There’s also another stair case across the ravine. If it hadn’t been so muddy we would have sprinted across and added the second stair case to the work out. Cool option for next time.
Dislikes: Realizing that some of my team mates (lookin’ at you Hadley and James) have a huge advantage due to their longer legs. I wonder if stilts would help me…
Steph
Didn’t even notice the stairs because training as a team was so awesome – get your team (or random acquaintances that like lactic acid build-ups) together for a team practice!
Likes: The ravine is COOL.
Dislikes: That last 20 stairs…I swear they were bigger, farther apart, and there was possibly more gravity in that section – physicists prove me wrong, I dare you.

Great to climb outside but there is one stretch that is about 25 steps long without a landing that is killer. Makes you realize how important the landings are…
