Do you guys have a legit trophy for fast climbing your fire stairs in your office? We also had a *plaque - but what we did, to burn the guy who always gloated a little too much, is put him in 3rd place with a slow time and spelled his name wrong. (He had one of those names that was always spelled the way it sounded and it irritated him.) Don't F with the design department. Also we had 50 stories - VEGASSSSS BABY LETS GO. I believe the record was 9' 06". Not me.

But today now that I'm in peak fitness doing triathlons and stuff I'll bet I could do it. It's a shame security is so tight anymore.

Technically, 2 steps up can be considered "stairs"...just saying...

And where does it say they have to be completed going up? Going down might be faster, albeit potentially more painful.
