(This goal is now complete – see DONE post)

When I arrived back from a recent trip to Europe at the end of July 2007, I commenced goal 129 (avoid the lifts at work for six consecutive months). This I am doing for the exercise benefit, giving I spend most of my day sitting at my desk in front of a computer. If I can avoid the lifts for six months, that should really get me in the habit of avoiding them all the time in future.

I work on the second floor, and we have a six storey car park, so there are quite a few stairs to travel in between.

If I can avoid the lifts until the end of January 2008, the goal shall be achieved.

I have set two allowable lift-using circumstances:

1. If I am with someone else who wishes to use the lift. It would seem very rude to stop mid-conversation to take the stairs while they travel in the lift.

2. If I carrying something above 5kg in weight.
