        Wow, Sassy1 - you are almost there!!

        By the way, do you do all your climbing in the dark? (ie -2 - 4 am?)

        15 flights for the 19th - now at 232.

            All right, let's try again. I've been here before, but I am (was!) very bad at sticking with the stairs.

            I live at the second floor. Did some counting today and I have to climb 40 steps to get to my room. No elevator yesterday (well, except when carrying my huge couch from the basement ) and climbed them for 5 times. Today I did it 4x already.

            Let's say I do it for 5 times daily. This would mean 200 steps per day.

            I'll wander for a few more minutes, check the maps, and then pick a trip.

            [I will edit this post a bit later.]

            OK, I'll go to Northern Ireland. Slieve Donard. Seems a bit unrealistic if I compare the number of steps to the top with the number of steps I do daily, but I gotta kick my .

                  Susan.. LOL @ do I do all my climbing at night Sometimes I end up doing a flight later on in the evening, so I wait till after dh has gone to work and my ds is in bed before I get on here to log any info for my challenges.

                  Jo - your right.. I can be a night owl but some nights am so exhausted I crash early.. lastnight is a prime example.. it was my dh's one night off and a night we had no kids.. and we were in bed at like 9:30pm! hahaha That's soooooooooo sad! LOL

                  You guys/gals are doing awesome, and I love the pics LOL.. it's like you're really doing the climbs!

                  Hello Georgiana and welcome back.

                  I hope everyone has had a great weekend!

                    We're not? I even charged my camera for this challenge.

                    580 steps yesterday (had to do laundry... 3 baskets!, so I was up and down the stairs for the whole day)

                    345 steps today. Had classes at the second floor, yey!

                    So this would be something like 61.66 flights.

                                I'm climbing Slieve Donard, Jimmie. 88 flights done, but I still have some left for tonight (gotta do laundry in the basement ). I'll come back later and edit this.

                                *****

                                +8 flights, so a total of 96.
