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

    Persevering with Scafell Pike... actually going a little faster than average as I have to lug wood up a flight of stairs in the garden, and stack it. An extra 4/5 flights a day, for a little while. Even so... that lovely baby would probably beat me to the top!
    Before and after:






    PLEDGING FLIGHTS
    Completed: 1st set of buildings and mountains (Everest,M.Blanc & Kilimanjaro, twice); Tower Masts & Chimneys; More virtual buildings; Challenger's Choice x 2 (volcanos and mountains on Mars). Currently climbing: Mount Snowdon again: 416/475

    Start 10 Jan 2005. Maintenance since Aug. 2005.

          OK, not sure how I'll do... but, I bought the stability ball. It has a video and all sorts of fun stuff. So, I'll try it a few times and see if I can stay on

                I know I haven't posted for awhile. I've just been so busy, but I've kept up my climbing. Since I was last here, I've finished Canary Wharf Tower, Petronas Twin Towers, CN Tower. I'm now working on Mont Blanc, France. I have 12,875/30,420.

                      I hope I make my goal guys! I need to do 400 more today and then 920 for 2 days! Adding other exercises with the stairs challenge my legs are starting to tell me no! Not gonna happen. But trying to push them to keep going!


                      Hopefully someday I am up in the 10000 like some of you are WOW you all are amazing.

                      I'll keep working at it.

                      Good luck everyone.

                        Hey, Jellybee - are you trying to climb a particular building or mountain? Take your time - we don't get to the top in one day, but it sounds as if you're really pushing hard!

                        My legs would turn to jelly if I climbed 400 in 1 day!

                          jelly, oh my, you don't need to do these in such a way as 400 a day. no no.
                          at your own pace and without injury!

                          the most i have ever done is 88 in one day, doing them in sets. i don't know any of us that have done 1000 in one day.

                          pace yourself, jelly. there's no time limit on this.
