Robby LeBlanc is climbing for charity March 3, 2012. In preparation for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro for charity in June 2012, Las Vegas Guitarist Robby LeBlanc will be climbing the Stratosphere Hotel Casino March 3, 2012 in Las Vegas,Nevada for the American Lung Association.
In my fight against Obesity and Diabetes, I know the value of lungs, healthy lungs! In order to climb Mt Kilimanjaro in June, my lungs will have to be in there healthiest state! My mother, Janet LeBlanc died ofCOPD. She smoked for years and it killed her.
Scale the Strat is the American Lung Association in Nevada s competitive stair climb. Individuals and teams will race up the Stratosphere Observation Tower inside staircase, while raising money to fund lung health research, education and advocacy in Southern Nevada.
Once the climbers are in the tower core, there is no exit point unless there is a medical emergency. Because of the unique location of the climb, special considerations need to be taken before you should register.
I would be lying if I said I wasn t a little nervous about climbing the Stratophere Hotel Casino. It s 108 floors and 1,455 steps! I don t expect to be breaking any records but I do expect to finish! The thing is, once you start climbing, you can t turn around! If an emergency arises and a climber needs to stop, they have to climb to the next exit. They can t climb down!
I do know they will have emergency medical teams available, because this is a big deal! This is NOT a cake walk! As they say, you can have bragging hotel riu cancun mexico reviews rights that you climbed the Stratosphere. I know a lot of folks at my gym that are in a lot better shape and condition than me that say they are not in good enough condition to attemp such a climb. How do I know this, because I asked a number of them to climb the strat with me and they said NO!
