PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

Awesome climbing everyone!

Jimmie... yes! The summit is in sight! Yippee! I try to average around 50 flights a day using the stepper and real life stairs... though some days I fall short. Would be cool to reach the summit along with Susan. We could admire your flags together! After that, looking forward to joining you on Everest!

you best hurry on getting to everest! i'm about to approach the 2/3 of the way up. now, bio might be reaching the summit of everest before me but i'll hot on heels.

for those that are approaching the finish of the entire climbs, do you plan on doing them over?
i've taken side trips and done several buildings in between the big mountains. i guess that means i plan on keeping up with this.

It's cool that you're going to keep climbing after Everest Jimmie! And goodness! You're doing fantastically well up there on the Big One! Also...thanks for the nudge to me to "get a move on to Everest". I'll try and put some high octane gas in my tank!

After Everest, I'd like to keep on climbing... and will probably do them over... but I wonder if we could calculate some other climbs and do those? With the height it should be feasible, don't you think?

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

very feasible!
as a matter of fact (and you know this already), jack did some calculations and if you guys want more of a challenge i can work on that.

Now what do we do? Sit in a circle and talk about how we can't stop climbing? Lol.

uh.... we run up to the snack room where there's a bowl of fresh veggies waiting to be devoured!

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

hehe jimmie, yes, it's a huge jump up in flights!

I found myself yesterday mentally calculating how many weeks it would take me to climb Mont Blanc! (at least a month lol) and then working out how to step up that time! I must have to join the addicts group too "hi, my name's sweet and I'm an addict" lol Climbing virtually with others, and with a little mental picture of what you're climbing is so much fun!

I was thinking the same thing the other day, although I'm no where near finished with this one! It'd be cool to add some more buildings too.

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

jack and i started work on this today. looking at things, calculating, logging stuff.

there's a new skyscraper under construction in dubai so i can see adding another set of climbs. doesn't have to be done in the next 10 minutes though.

also found some other types of structures that we can climb. looks like we'll be satisfying our addiction.

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

Hi there! I messed up by gaining weight and I stopped climbing for fun. For myself, I'll be starting all over, but I just want to know how it works as far as reporting in. Can I continue from where I was to report in or do I need to start over again?

[jimmie 48]

Re: PLEDGING FLIGHTS *** A Stair Climb Challenge

don't start over, kate!
what you've done already can't be taken away. just keep on climbing from you are!

report in as often as you like but make sure at the very least, you let us know when you finish another climb. we like saying "congratulations!"
