That is a pretty cool idea and I suppose it would bring a lot of attention to the climb, increasing the flow of money to the United Way. I think that most people who do the climb are weekend warrior types and maybe they over-estimated how difficult it would be. Still, it isn't much of a workout at all, I don't understand why you would need a heart monitor....maybe they were dressed to impress?
