CN TOWER CLIMB!!!

Apr 28, 2007 18:29

yes I am getting as bored of that heading as the rest of you probably more!

I did it!! I climbed the CN Tower, see through metal stairs and giant empty air shaft on my right side and all! and to be honest once I got to about the 50th flight of stairs I wasn't scared anymore! Yup I climbed all 1700+ stairs and I did it in 30mins and 38 secs...I would have been faster but being that I'm afraid of heights I didn't pass people on the stairs and I also took 30secs to 1 min breaks every 20 flights of stairs in order to pace myself and pop my ears to stop the pounding head meat. sneaky bastards those WWF er's are you get to the "top" they punch your time card tell you your done and then you have to climb like 5-10 more flights of stairs to actually get to the top! it's like some sick game, oh look your done here's your prize 10 more flights of stairs!! as a bonus though the air whipping around on the observation deck is freaking fantastic after that tiny cramped, sticky, b.o. smelling stair well! no I didn't go to the glass floor level are you out of your FREAKING MIND!?! so yeah that was my climb...I must say it was scary as you walk to the base of the tower to start your climb but then after you are done when you are walking away from the tower and you look up at it from the bottom and really see how far you climbed it's super empowering! got a warm fuzzy spot now for that tower! feels like I have conquered something HUGE!! yeah I'm weird whatever...I will deffinately do it again next year, only this time I want people with me!! who's with me?? oh yeah and one final note...I DON'T EVER WANT TO SEE ANOTHER SET OF STAIRS UNTIL NEXT YEARS CLIMB!!!!!!

p.s. thank you to everybody who donated money and to those who wished me luck I really really appreciated it...I raised $100 dollars on my own and the total from fundraising at the earthdancers show was $205.75 though I only got to add $40.00 of that to my total for some reason. So the total amount I handed in was $140.00
