Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

Thanks Sally, looks like your making a good dent in Ben Nevis. I'm gonna keep going with the buildings.

I finished Forth Bridge today, and will start on the BT Tower.

Thanks Jimmie for starting this awsome challange.

well kristi, i got it going but my good peeps and fellow modlings, sal and sadiejen (sallyseachange and sadie147) and 2big helped with giving me ideas and encouraging me to go for it. sadie was the one that actually found the online challenge with the paperwork we use.

kudos to you for climbing so fast! my gosh, you'll be done with all of these before us verterns are done!!!

At 5'3 I would say short and stubby is more like it.

Jimmie - That's what I love about this board, the team work and support here is phenominal (p.s. not only am I short, but I can't spell very well either)


Unfortunately after finishing Forth Bridge, I seem to have taken a virtual fall down all 45 flights, and took a 2 day recovery (which was 2 days too long).

I'm back at it now, and trying to make a good dent into the BT tower. Maybe I can finish it and save my wounded pride .

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

OK, I thought this would be a great challenge for me since I'm in a 6 story building. Don't take the elevator -take the stairs. I made one huge goof!!! I did read all the "rules" and didn't set a weekly goal for myself. Me bad - very bad. So I've been climbing and recording but didn't set my goal by the week or by a building.
The nitty gritty -- since I started this I have climbed the Millennium Dome ( 21) and the Sydney Opera House (2. I should finish the Clifton bridge today. So now that I have to a goal (duh!), I plan to do 60 flights this week. This would take me to completing Big Ben and Forth Rail bridge.

i wouldn't worry too much about the goal setting, gem. if the others have done what i did, after a few building/mountains were out of the way, goal setting wasn't so much the thing anymore. if they are like me, they are doing more each time without really thinking about it too much. just keep on climbing!
good to see the report though and i will be putting little "x"'s by your name on my sheet!
congrats on the progress thus far!!!

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

Sorry 2Big, I thought you were calling me Shilo.

This is a Shilo:



Although she will only come to "Kitty", "Bad Kitty", or "Bad Mr. Kitty"

We're both tired today . . . still working on the BT Tower.

Thanks Jimmie. I finished the BT Tower. Starting Blackpool Tower Tomorrow.

Kitty's calling me on, she want's to start climbing it now, but I am so tired from work. I'll try to do the whole thing tomorrow - it's my day off.
