Climbing the stairs to the fourteenth floor on No Elevators Day

The international initiative No Elevators Day will be celebrated today with a climb to the fourteenth floor of the College of Tourism in Burgas. Anyone who wants to join in can test their physical strength by participating individually or in a team of three. 

The initiative aims to promote more physical activity for a healthier and better quality of life. "By taking the stairs instead of the lift more often, we counteract sedentary lifestyles and improve our health," say the organisers from the Delphi Strategic Management Association.

No Elevators Day has been celebrated in the country for several years.
