Welcome to James S.'s Go Vertical Chicago Page.
On Sunday, November 9th, I will climb the Sears Tower (2,109 steps, 103 floors and 1,353 vertical feet) as part of Go Vertical Chicago 2008, the longest indoor stair climb in the world.
I am climbing to raise funds for cancer research for all types of cancer, through an organization that funds the top young cancer scientists in the country, the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation.
This is a unique event that only happens once a year. Please click on the "Go Donate" button at the top of this page to make a donation that supports my climb.
You can choose the amount you want to give, or sponsor me by step or by floor - or just make a general donation to the charity itself. All donations are gratefully received!
Thank you for your support.
Very best regards . . .
Jim S. Nasby
