5000 stairing her in the face

By KATIE DE VERTEUIL

IF YOU thought those few stairs to your office each morning were challenging enough, how about tackling 5000 plus.
Noosa’s Kate Davidson is preparing to do exactly that, as she trains with a team to take part in the ultimate stair climb challenge Stadium Stomp GABBA on Sunday 21 June.
Now in its second year, Stadium Stomp GABBA provides entrants with the one-off opportunity to take on the 5000 plus steps on seating Levels 2 and 4 of the renowned Brisbane Cricket Ground in Woolloongabba while raising money for a nominated charity at the same time.
A personal trainer at EFM healthclub, Kate is sure to find the challenge a little less daunting than many and it is rather her desire to help increase the fitness of those around her as well as raising money for a worthy cause that drew her to the event.
“I’m hoping to round up as many people from the Noosa community as possible to join me at the GABBA,” Kate said.
“As a trainer I always encourage people to set themselves regular challenges, through which they can push themselves and guarantee great results.”
Supporting the event’s official charity The Mater Children’s Hospital, Kate hopes that between her and her team a target of $3000 can be reached.
Anyone interested in joining Kate’s team can visit; www.facebook.com/Kate.Davidson.Personal.Trainer.
For anyone wanting to donate head to; stadiumstomp2015gabba.gofundraise.com.au/page/KateDavidson1.
Further information can be found at www.stadiumstomp.com.au/GABBA.
For those who prefer drinking coffee than running up stairs, donations can also be made at Waterline Espresso, Noosa – proud sponsors of Kate and her team.
