The top was designed to be a Zepplin Docking Station: until the Hindenburg disaster in 1937 at Lakehurst, New Jersey.
The Empire State Building Run-Up is an annual race up 1,576 steps to the 86th floor of the building. The world record time for the race is held by Australian Paul Crake at 9 minutes and 33 seconds.

Gosh that is a lot of energy. Have you climbed the steps Paul?

ha, no I don't have that much energy. I feel like I would pop a hip joint.

I certainly couldn't with two new knees Paul. LOL.

I wouldn't risk it. We can at least look at it and take pictures and I heard they have really nice restaurants on the ground floor.
