Thanks to some amazing generosity I am listed to take part in a stairclimbing event downtown to support the American Lung Association.

Tomorrow Sat. 03/01/08
The event is to race up 42 stories. The stairway turns to the left


Tale of the tape--(No excuses just explanations)

I am 6'2" 245 pounds
I hate to run
I play racquetball outside in the summer (It's been a long cold winter)
It's been to cold to ride my bike
I smoke 4-6 cigars a week
I have been trying to swim 1000 meters (twice a week) last 6 weeks --- I have trouble timing breaths
Last Thursday I threw my back out (on the couch rest of the day)
Ibuprofen and Flex-all 454 for the last couple days ---- much better now
My start time is scheduled at 08:39 I get off work at 06:30 (I usually go straight to bed if I work nights)

So as a contest all you have to do is guess how long it will take me to complete it. A tiebreaker question will be, On what floor do I hit the wall and really start dragging from my starting pace?

Only one guess, I'll send out a package to the person whose prediction is closest to the outcome.
 
It will be 26mins 45 secs

You will start dragging on the 13th flight (there are no 13th floors so this is quite a conundrum to quote the exact location...lol)
 
Man are you going to be sore. :laugh:

Thanks for the contest:

59 minutes, and you are never going to take the stairs again. :D

The wall will begin on the 16th flight.

Good Luck
 
1 hour 10 minutes.
With 2 walls one at the 20th and a major one at 35th.
Good luck
 
32 minutes

39 floor

If it was me chances are I would never make it to the top. :D
 
52 minutes, wall on the 12th floor.

Can't wait to see the outcome. Go easy on that back though...
 
37 minutes, and you will hit the wall at floor 7.

Good luck bro, I would probably cry if I did that.
 
Nice, :thumbs:

I just had a service call to an apartment complex. 7 storey building, had to take stairs to the top floor.

Tool bad weight is 45 pounds. legs were done at 7 could have made 12.

Your time is 58 minutes.

You will need two breaks. 20/40 floor.

Good luck. :whistling:

What is your age. LOL

Swimming tip, breath every 3rd stroke.


EDIT to add age 37 :laugh:
 
26 mins 47 secs

hit the wall at 17

I am baseing my guess on this info I found on a similar event in Iowa tomorrow.Linky

Good Luck

Lou
 
Time: 28 minutes
Hit the wall: 13th floor

Great cause, best of luck to you!
 
40 minutes, 22 seconds and you hit the wall at the 11th floor.
