Morning (partly off)trail run around Skatås.

Afternoon stairs back-to-back first the outdoor stairs, then the indoor stairs aka climber (they are about 500m apart).

Totals for the day: 10.8km / 1200m of EG / 5322 steps / 2h15min

I passed 100000 steps on the indoor stairs (climber). And I am approaching 50000 steps up (and 50000 steps down) on the outdoor stairs.

😜🏔️ Apart from all the other runs on trails and hills I could identify the following "dedicated" sessions for the #niesen #treppenlauf on the city stairs plus hills in town and incline treadmill (I add the stats for the climber for completeness) (note to self - add better tags to your sessions in the log to find them easier).

Last 8 weeks...

Total: 41 sessions, 114km, 118128 steps, 37h, 29020m of EG

Stair climber: 19 sessions, 84375 steps, 16776m of EG

City stairs/hills: 11 sessions, 82km, 33753 steps, 17.5h, 7750m of EG

Incline treadmill: 11 sessions, 32km, 5.5h, 4494m of EG, 15 % incline (1 with only 9%🤣)

Some stair climber stats from my training for the #niesen #treppenlauf (11700 steps/1669m of EG/3.4km) which will be in 8 weeks.

And 8 weeks ago I started with the stair climber in the gym. Numbers so far: I did 19 sessions and 84375 steps/16776m of EG in 840min (14h) 😳.
Sessions with 1000+ meters (or 5000+ steps): 8.
Longest session: 98 minutes (1890m/9450 steps).
Avg pace all sessions: 100 steps/min.
Avg steps per session: 4441.
Avg EG per session: 883m.
Avg duration of session: 44min.

I am now able to do 1000m/5000 steps in 45min. Started at 60min when attempting it for the first time.

Onto the next 8 weeks.

I will see if I can compile the some numbers for the outdoor stairs - I have done plenty of those as well… 👊

Milchstrasse
Aussichtspunkt Niesenbänkli in Ringoldswil um 4 Uhr morgens. Es war kalt und ich habe 2-3 Stunden an der gleichen Stelle die Milchstrasse fotografiert, wunderte mich, dass die Sicht durch die Kamera immer trüber wurde, bis ich feststellte, dass sich Raureif auf der Linse gebildet hatte.

Another stair climber session… Improved my time for 5000+ steps (1000m of EG) from 48:30 (ten days ago) down to 45min.

5111 steps / 1022m of EG / 300 floors / 45 min

5min @ 96steps/min
5min @ 110
5 x (1min @ 130 and 1min @ 110)
5min @ 110
5 x (1min @ 130 and 1min @ 110)
10min @ 110

Fresh “stair legs” with 2 days of easy running after the monster outdoor stair session in the neighborhood last Saturday.

Done⛰️🐐. Made it back from the other side. 60 rounds up and down for 11700 steps and 1640m of EG in 3h01min (up 1h41min, down 1h20min) and 8.84km. Happy and satisfied as the plan was to see if I could finish around 3h30min.

So I can do the 11700 steps and 1640m of EG with 4.4km in 1h41min.

I also passed the “Niesen cutoff point” of 970m of EG (and 2.1km) within 70min here today at 57min (and 2.5km).

Nice confidence booster. But I am even more scared now than before. This was not easy - even during training.

These stairs are a perfect training playground for the Niesen Treppenlauf. 70m long, 30m of EG (42% incline) and 195 steps.
