I'm walking
« on: June 17, 2013, 08:21:30 PM »
Hi,

currently I'm trying to lose some weight.

Besides bicycling on the weekends (35km / 21.75mi on Saturday and 25km / 15.5mi on Sunday) I'm also walking stairs.

From the ground floor one floor up and down again.

As of this moment we have 29°C / 84°F.

I still managed to climb 55 floors up and down in 30m13s, which makes a turnaround time of 32.96s per lap.

This is a difference in altitude (only up) of 217.8m / 714.5ft and a total walking way of 1236m / 0.77mi.


These are my lap counters:




And now I'm thirsty!!!



PS: This was my bike tour last Saturday: http://bit.ly/13UYEXf

They're not mine, they're a friends. :)




They weigh 65kg / 143lb each. :)

I got in to walking last year and loved it.  Haven't done a lot so far this year.  We've been slammed with a major project at work for months.  But I'd like to start getting back out there.  I like what it did to my legs! ;D

I have an app on my phone that counts steps, milage, calories burned and so on.  Great little app.  It even shows my route.

Well, good luck to you!

BIG dogs are the only way to go ... Once you go Irish you'll never go back! :)

Thank you
