Stadium Stomp 2019
Take a break from your usual exercise regime and run up 7600 stairs instead.
Overview
If the words "stair climbing challenge" fill you with excitement instead of dread, read on. The MCG will again play host to Stadium Stomp, a fun-filled romp for your calves which involves climbing up and down the thousands of stairs (there are 100,024 seats, so there are also a lot of stairs.)
As part of the challenge, you can climb up and down the stairs in the full course (7600 stairs), or the short course (a mere 2200). There's also a Stomp Unlimited option, which is stairs until the end of time or you collapse — although that has sold out
There will be rest stops and drink stations to help ease the pain, and music playing to distract from the burn. Also, the rules are no skipping stairs, so no doing three at a time and calling it a day.
The first wave kicks off at 7.45am, with waves following every 15 minutes after. Tickets are selling fast, so get in quick.
