Everesting, Back-pain, Balance and Much More...

That's amazing.

And, and just, just for people who maybe don't know what Everesting is, can you, can you explain a bit of what the goal is behind an Everest and how you define it? Like what's, what does it look like?

Yeah, so Everesting is usually can be for runners as well.

But I think probably most people who are familiar with the term Everesting are familiar with it in a cycling context, I would probably imagine.

But it's the idea that you basically do a repetitive hill climb.

So you would choose like one hill or one mountain that you're going to repetitively climb.

over and over and over as many times as it takes to essentially gain 29,029 feet of elevation, which is the exact height of Mount Everest.

And if you're going to do it the quote unquote right way, you're not allowed to sleep during that time.

So you have to do it under one continuous time period.

Obviously, you can stop for bathroom and water breaks and nutrition, all that good stuff.

But the idea is that you do it all at one time within a a specific time period

so on the particular mountain that you're looking at how many kilometers would that work out to be i'm probably testing your testing your memory here but i reckon you've probably figured it out

yeah so and i apologize for anyone listening who's uh not in the united states who uh doesn't maybe know the imperial system as much or whatever i know the metric system is much better in that regard yeah he has a converter so um So the particular mountain that we would be doing, I believe from bottom to top is just shy of a thousand feet.

So I believe it's like around 987, if I have my number correctly.

So like 987 feet.

So I believe we would have to climb it 33 times roughly.

in order to achieve 29,000 feet.

The average grade is around 12%, if I'm remembering correctly.

It's between like 7% and 12%, somewhere in that range.

There are parts that are, you know, 7%, parts that are, I think, like 14%.

But I think on average, it's like, you know, 10% to 12% grade, somewhere in that range.

So then looking at, I mean, Everest is around 8,000 meters elevation in meters.

So you'd be looking at 133 kilometers.

Yep.

Including the downhill sections.

That's amazing.
