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

    Thanks Jimmie and Sally! And Jimmie congrats on the 1/2 mark, that's pretty impressive.

    Today I did 30 flights, so that means I'm done with the Forth Rail Bridge and I only have 11 more to do for the BT Tower.

                                oh sweet, it is a big jump in flights between those isn't it? those that have trekked that mountain before you complained about that too.

                                dep, slow is okay as long as you don't come to a standstill.
