A fitbit watch sets several goals for one to accomplish in a day.  A certain amount of steps, so many calories to burn, be active for so many minutes, and climb 10 flights of stairs. YHC lives in a slightly raised 1 story house.  Almost every day all goals are met except for those stairs.  So, what does YHC do?  He calls City Park, his council woman, his neighborhood association, old friends, high school acquaintances, the mayor, all the way to the Commander-in-Chief (via twitter) for access to Tad Gormley stadium so that the PAX can conquer the stair goal.  YHC was so confident in his ability to gain access to the Stadium that he had already formed a playlist of inspiration stair music.

  • Stairway to Heaven
  • Spiral Staircase
  • Halfway Down the Stairs
  • Staircase
  • Opposites Attract

However, much to the disappointment of the PAX, YHC did not get permission to enter Tad Gormley, nor was a plan B even formed.  So, the PAX continued the traditional route and the instructions were to make your best effort to gain ground.  YHC had a PR for the 610 Stomp at 4.6 miles.  The PAX rendezvoused at the flag (in the back of someone’s truck) and sealed the deal with 10 burpees.

Tclaps to Cowbell for his 300for30 and to Kimchi for his continuous streak.

Moleskin: At the end of YHC’s run, his fitbit said that he climbed 6 flights of stairs.

Thank you for letting me lead.  Humbly Yours,
