I get about 2-3 Fridays in a month when my wife is not on her 3 week breaks (She works in a year round school that goes for 9 weeks and then has 3 weeks off year round). Its not completely stairs. Its a hockey rink, so I start at the home bench, run around the rink to the visitor bench, double back and go up the back stairs, across the top, double back across the top again, then go through the stadium running up and back down each set of stairs, when I get across the 7 sets of stairs that's the halfway point, I double the whole thing back again for 1 set. Its a solid workout and builds some strength. Its also funny, because every once in a while some high school kid who works their thinks they can hang with an old man. Usually they're good for about a set and a half at my pace before they stop. Hehehe (evil laugh)!
