There are a couple cool events this weekend if you’re looking to challenge yourself.
• Talk about your step aerobics! Climb Phoenix is Sunday, Oct. 25 at 8 a.m. at Renaissance Square, 40 N. Central Ave. in downtown Phoenix. Participants start in building one, climb up 26 floors, elevator down, go to building two, climb 27 floors, then elevator down to the finish. Participants will cover 1,272 steps before their day is done. The event benefits the American Lung Association.

• One of my favorite Valley races returns Saturday, Oct. 24 to South Mountain, 10919 S. Central Ave. in Phoenix.The YMCA Half Marathon and 5K is back for the 41st time with a new sponsor — GoDaddy.com. Arizona’s oldest half marathon features a challenging, scenic course with a unique sendoff for runners: Wyatt Earp starts the race with a double-barrel shotgun in the tradition of the old west.
