Re: Stair Challenge

I walked for 38 minutes on the treadmill and did 20 flights of stairs yesterday. That is $2 more towards my challenge money.

I am lovin this challenge...and I am really enjoying watching my challenge $ account grow!!! I am at 12 so far today...

Re: Stair Challenge

I just had a lightbulb moment while walking up (uphill) to get my mail....the mailbox is right in front of my mom and dads home...and so I counted the steps...160 each way...320 round trip...and I usually average 5 trips a day to check in and deliver stuff...hmm...thats an extra 1500 steps to the day....maybe Ill thorow in an extra trip or two each day!

Re: Stair Challenge

I walked for 30 minutes and got 20 flights of stairs in, so there is $2 for my challenge. Have to go to North Carolina in a few minutes, so looks like my exercise will be sitting in the car today!

Re: Stair Challenge

In the last 48 hours I have walked for 2 hours and mowed my lawn for 1 1/2 hours, this is the only time that I get my heart rate up to excerise level when I do the lawn and yard work then its a trip to visit the chiro soon after!

The only time that I did get to this level when excerising was with heart montiors on in doctor office at the Hospital, I only got to level one too! I took over 45 minutes to get my levels down too! I didn't have a heart problem when tested.


My tally $10

Re: Stair Challenge

Well I predicted I would not get any exercise in yesterday and I was right. I never exercise at night, because I spend all my time with dh when he is home. I have done that so long, he would feel hurt if I let him sit downstairs all by himself. I will try and do better today.

Re: Stair Challenge

Im not sure how many stairs I got in yesterday...I took the stairs at the hospital...and was up and down several times...and I know I got in at least 10 trips here at home....walked up to check on mom 4 times, another to get mail....and I parked in the north 40 at the hospital for a little more walking...oh, took the stairs at the credit union when I went to visit my old boss too...so im gonna say close 'enough for yesterday....and I am up and at it already today...i was wiped out, pooped, exhausted last night....slept like a log...

Re: Stair Challenge

I did get in my 30 plus minutes of walking on my treadmill, but only made 16 flights of stairs, so I will add $1 to my challenge money! (that was yesterday, still working on today)

Re: Stair Challenge

I did pretty good yesterday, cause I stayed home. I walked 20 flights of stairs and did 60 minutes on my treadmill! How did everyone else do?
