I find a run both ways and for some reason i'm compelled to move faster on the steps. As my roommate noted maybe its because they aren't fun. But i would say i run less up the stairs in public view. Is this weird?

I always run up and down the steps, I haven't a clue why. I have steps that go upstairs and stairs that go down into my garage and I always run both ways. Wether it's weird or not it's great excercise:)

I usually run up staris when I am on them too. I can't seem to take my time and walk up them slowly for some reason. I have to do it quickly =)

I don't think so. I run up and down the stairs at home. Now in public, I usually have 5 kids with me so I don't get ANYWHERE quickly...lol I don't think that's weird though ;-)

I live in an apartment building and on the 5th floor. Sometimes I don't feel like waiting for the elevator so i take the stairs to the laundry room in the basement. The door to the stairwell is right next to mine so its pretty convenient and i find myself running up and down the stairs and using the railing as leverage to swing me up and around.. would you in public by yourself?

OH heck YEAH! Five flights of stairs...I'd be swinging and pulling and running! I also use the railing to pull myself! I probably wouldn't do that in a court house or some place like that, but in an apartment building or a friends house, I would definitely be doing it!

I guess I do try to move a little faster going up the stairs to get it out of the way or something. lol When I'm going downstairs, I think I tend to run more cause it's easier. I kind of think I run less though when I'm in public view too, but that's because I'm afraid that the people behind me will notice me jiggling or something! hehe

I run up stairs at home but not so much in public places. I just don't want to do it in front of other people. lol I run faster up them when I'm at home too.

This reminds me of the time i was running to the laundry room rather swooping to the laundry room down 6 flights of stairs i got some speed and then ran into some people. I didn't crash and no one got hurt but they definitely think i'm one of the crazies in the building. Its funny of such random acts can build a reputation.. What do you like better running down or up the stairs? Down is fun because you can jump i find! Hey if you think i'm getting too this you're wrong, life is about every minute of it even using stairs!
