      Awww jimmie... pathetic, isn't it, especially after Everest!!?? (Though the "siggy update" prob caused a tiny flight whooshie! lol).
      Walking is ok now, but stairs are still a bit uncomfortable for me. Been taking lifts for the first time in months (no, maybe it's years!!). Anyway... am hoping to increase a little this week and have rejoined the pedometer challenge at a reduced clip.

      Nice to have your company on Vesuvius. Kudos to you for climbing two at once!!

        Hello fellow climbers,

        I will take this challenge! Been on induction 4 weeks, cheat free, and am down 13lbs! Moving on to OWL this week. Been complaining had no time for exercise and just yesterday challenged myself to no longer do the elevators at work! So this is great to find you!!!!!

        I'm sorry to be dense, but how do I figure out the steps vs flights please. Math challenged!

          donner, it's so good to have another challenger!!!!!

          others and myself are glad you made the choice to take the steps instead of the elevator. several challengers got started that same exact way.

          for the counting of steps:
          basically, 15 steps is equal to 1 flight. that is the calculation used on all the climbs. you don't have to check in here daily but we would like to know what climb you are working on and when you finish a climb so we can congratulate you. after finishing a set of buildings or any other group, you will recieve an award. while climbing, you can use the following graphic to signify you are in this challenge


          you can choose what set you will be climbing from the following:
          Find more Virual Buildings here

          Find Towers, Masts and Chimneys here

          CLICK HERE TO GET YOUR STAIR CLIMBING WORKSHEET

          we also have a challengers choice, but i would suggest getting one of the above groups under you flight climbing feet before tackling that group.

                  How's everyone doing here these days?

                  I'm still labouring slowly up Vesuvius. Jimmie... are you still with me? If you are, sorry to be so erratic lately.. am leading you a merry (but slow) dance here! A far cry from just a little while ago!
                  Knee's improving slowly, but I still might have the cat scan done, cos it's too slow for my liking.
