Stair climbing is a great complimentary activity for runners - The vigors of stair climbing strengthen heart and lungs and increase VO2 max levels.

Additionally, climbing stairs targets the bigger muscles in your body that usually get neglected during a run. All this leads to better, stronger running.

Stadium Stomp would be a great addition to any runner’s calendar.

We hope to see you on Sunday, April 10 at the Adelaide Oval for Stadium Stomp.
