Event Overview
MSWA Step Up is a tower stair-climbing event held at Central Park Tower in Perth. The 2026 listing is scheduled for Sunday, 21 June 2026. Participants can choose from four options: Mini Climb (477 steps), One Up (1,103 steps), Double Up (2,206 steps), or Multi Climb (as many climbs as you can complete). The event is staged as an individual or team challenge within Perth’s Central Park building.
What the Course Demands
This is a sustained stair effort with repeated changes in pace and frequent accelerations around landings and turns. The One Up and Double Up options require consistent climbing rhythm, while Multi Climb adds cumulative fatigue across repeated ascents. Even the shorter Mini Climb can feel intense due to the continuous upward gradient. Efficient pacing and controlled breathing are important, particularly as the step counts increase.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits runners who enjoy short, high-effort challenges and athletes looking for a measurable vertical test in a controlled setting. The Mini Climb can work well for first-timers and younger participants, while One Up and Double Up are better for those comfortable sustaining hard efforts. Multi Climb is best for experienced participants who can manage repeated climbs and recovery between attempts.
