I just LOVE a challenge!!!

What a day!! 1st of all let me say this: The scale can kick rocks with no socks because today I reached my SIZE GOAL!!!!!!!! I am officially a size SIX! Yea, you read it right. 6!!!
Looky look!!
Now, let's get down to business! I set a challenge for myself that when I reached 1,000 likes on my Facebook page that I would run the stairs at the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City 20x up and 20x down. Yesterday, I reached 1,000 likes so being a woman of my word, today I completed my challenge.

As it turns out, I underestimated myself! After completing the 20 rounds of stairs, I still had more to give  and I don't quit when I still have more to give so I went for 25. When I got to 25, I still had more. Went for 30! By 30 I was pretty spent!

Here is the video:


I am just learning to make videos so I know it's not the best quality but I hope you enjoyed it anyway!!

SO ready for the next challenge????

31 flights up x 36 stairs = 1,116 stairs UP. (1,080 down. I ended at the top.)

SO.......when I reach 2,000 likes on Facebook, the next challenge is this:

Climb the tallest building in America!!!

But since I'm not traveling to Chicago to climb the Willis Tower (better known as the Sears Tower), I will do it at the Taj again equal to the amount of stairs in the Willis Tower.


There are 2,109 stairs in the Willis Tower, which means to equal that I will have to climb the stairs at the Taj a total of 59x - almost double what I did today. So let's get to LIKING people!!!! :) I just LOVE a challenge!!!

Love always,
Krystle

Wow, You are an amazing person. I wish I had met you a year ago. But God knows the best timing for everything. I'm inpired by your story. Congratulations with your challenge. I live in a top unit. No elevators, so I go up and down those stairs daily. Sometimes three or four times. My coach told me to carry a step counter. All my friends that come visit me rather wait for me downtairs. They go out of breath by the time they get to my door. I have liked your FB page, and I will be following your blog as well. God bless you.
