"Suicide Stairs"

This is how I felt by the fifth set of stairs today.. But it felt good. There is a crazy set of stairs by my house that is fondly referred to by some as the "Suicide Stairs".. it ascends for probably about 100-150 feet up a ravine and consists of 202 steps (which someone so kindly marked at the top, although I have counted them myself too). It was humid and warm and I was drenched in sweat. By the time I was done I had ascended a total of 1,010 steps and done 100 push ups. It was wonderful:) Although I can't believe that there was a time once (or twice) a couple of years ago that I ran DOUBLE this amount of stairs.. much slower, I'm sure.. yikes.
