  • Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

    that was flights!
    the amount of steps we've climbed is 602,265 . plus all the partials we're on.

    climbing to the moon.....i do believe that i've had a discussion a month or so ago with another flights challenger about something right along those lines.

    ya just never know what kind of challenge will show up around here, right sal?

                  oh sweet, that jump from Ben Nevis to Mont Blanc was the worst! 587 to 2028 was horrid! but once you get to the half way point on Blanc it gets okay. if you've got some other challengers on the same mountain, it's a help.

                          WELCOME TO OUR CHALLENGE, HEATHER!
                          this is one of the best challenges on the board, imho. with a daily routine already in place, you should racking up the buildings pretty fast!

                          make sure you let us know when you finish something because we like giving congrats!

                            Howdy Folks. It's been a while. I got a case of bronchitis, and was off exercise for 3 weeks. When I recovered, I started with tennis, and other than the few stairs I climbed to and from the courts, I wasn't getting much climbing in. After 4 weeks of building my endurance back up through tennis, I finally motivated to get back on the beach stairs, and get some more of these buildings conquered.

                            So, it looks like I have 4 buildings to go before I start on the mountains. Updated status is in the sig.
                            Starting Date 12/30/06 279/225/194 - M, Height: 6'0", Age: 39

                            Pledging Flights - Stair Climb Challenge:

                            Summited: All the buildings,
                            Slieve Donard. Next: Scafell Pike (2006/6180)
