I'm impressed -- I don't think I could climb 540m in 4:30 even in my car.

oops, I originally entered a couple reps of stairs early, then edited the entry to add the afternoons climbs. Didn't edit the time properly though. I climb them 2 at a time, and by the time I get to my office, my hearts pounding pretty good and the quads are burning. A 90m (stories) flight takes me a little over a minute or so if I'm pushing, a minute and a half at a brisk pace if I'm carrying crap up to my office - so I'm calling it a minute and a half for each set.

But it's 90 meters of distance, not 90 meters of climb, right? I think you're enteringit as climb. And if you're climbing 90 meters in just over a minute, I'm very impressed. And I'd wonder if you're also taking the elevator on the way down....

I think that long drive back from Ohio dulled my senses a bit. thats supposed to be 96 feet per set, not 90 meters. It is climb, not distance... but you're right 540 meters of climb would be a hell of an accomplishment in that amount of time.. thanks for catching me on it. Looks like last week's was ok, but this weeks entries were just a total brain-fart...

And yes, elevator down for recovery when I do multiple climbs at one time.. But I haven't set foot in the elevator yet today..

We've got snow covered ground here again... how about you?

The morning's inch of snow around Amherst is already gone. Good riddance.
