This week lets do stairs along with our 100 mile challenge.
If you physically can do 1 flight on M-W-F and 2 flights T-Th-Sat. Sunday is a day of rest!
If a flight is too much, do what you can and on the alternate days double it. Push yourself but don't hurt yourself. We will check in on Wednesday on this thread to see how your doing! Who's in?

    Stairs are 'business as usual' for me - I live in a 2-storey house and enter through the basement - I'm guessing I do 30 flights a day :) !

    I guess I'll have to go find some stairs...my house has a ramp into it and only one floor because my husband is handicapped. I'm sure I'll be able to find some somewhere! LOL

    I'm in. I too, live on a single level home and will need to find stairs. How many stairs would you say constitutes a flight of stairs?

    You just want to feel slightly winded. You want to get that heart beating and blood pumping. Also if you can't find stairs, you can do lunges

    Shouldn't be a problem, I do lots of flights a day. I'll just try to step over 2 stairs at a time or go faster :)

    While at Disneyland, my grandkids and I made a game of counting the stairs we climbed getting on the rides. My 2.5 yr old grandson practiced his counting and my 1st grade granddaughter then grouped the numbers into 12's and we then climbed 27 flights of stairs over 2 days. It was fun to get them involved and this challenge has been a lot of fun. Thanks everyone.
