ONE HILL (ORIGINAL EVERESTING)
- Anything that has vertical gain can be used to complete an Everesting.
- Rides must focus on one hill or mountain per ride (e.g. you can’t base yourself in one location and ride multiple hills).
- Rides cannot be loops. The descent must be via the same road, unless you are prevented from doing so (e.g. one-way street or one-way trail).
- Rides must be full ascents of your chosen climb each time. You can’t commit to a combination of full and half laps.
- Once you hit your climbing target you can abandon the final repeat.
- You can start and finish anywhere on the hill (bottom, middle, or top).
- Each repeat must be ridden up and down (i.e. you can’t get driven down each time).
- You need to keep your device recording the whole time.
MULTIPLE HILLS (EVERESTING ROAM)
Everesting ROAM removes the requirement to repeat a single hill.
You may complete the challenge across multiple climbs and routes, accumulating elevation continuously until the required ROAM elevation target is reached.
ROAM can be completed as:
- Half Everesting ROAM – 4,424 m+ (14,515 ft+)
- Full Everesting ROAM – 8,848m+ (29,209ft+)
- Everesting 10k ROAM – 10,000 m+ (32,809 ft+)
All other Everesting rules still apply, including completing the challenge in a single activity and recording the attempt on Strava.
- The challenge must be completed in one attempt with no sleep.
- Breaks for meals are acceptable.
- You can break for as long as you need. Keep in mind this counts towards the total elapsed time.
- Your final time for the challenge is taken as the total elapsed time of the attempt, not the total moving time.
