My fitness commitment

I started a new work assignment last week. It's with a financial institution, located downtown. My work space is on the thirteenth floor - yes, this building has a thirteenth floor.

When I started, I made a commitment to myself, to my fitness. My commitment is that every day I walk down the stairs, all the way to the bottom, then back up again, all the way to the thirteenth floor. I am pleased to say I have been faithful in this commitment for the past two weeks.

Ironically, the power was out when I arrived yesterday morning, and only one elevator was working. Being the morning rush hour (yes, the elevators in this building have a rush hour), I didn't feel like waiting forever for the one elevator to arrive on ground floor, then pack in like sardines. So I took the stairs up.
