Wanna give yourself a real workout today? Head to the Galleria, where the American Lung Association holds its annual Conquer the Tower Stair Climb. For those of you in the dark about just how much scaling that entails, that’s 37 floors! And more than 615 steps! (You can also opt for the half-climb, if 37 floors is 19 too many for you.) All participants receive a commemorative long-sleeved T-shirt and an invitation to a post-hike party, where folks will presumably collapse into heaving piles of freshly toned flesh. The speediest climbers in various categories also snag medals.
