Everesting is a mountain climbing challenge that requires riders to climb a single hill continuously, unlike other challenges. The rider climbs and descends the same hill until they reach an elevation equal to Mount Everest. This activity is also known as vEveresting.
Hells 500 introduced the Everesting Challenge. It all began when adventure junkies came up with an idea for an endurance event. Lachlan Moron, a member from EF Pro Cycling Team who is also a rider, was part of this group. He set the world record in the Everesting Ride for the fastest Everesting ride. He also holds the record for the fastest Everesting ride using an FSA/Vision equipped Cannondale SuperSix Disc, and the fastest ever ride on Metron 40 disc brake wheels.
It is becoming very popular with cyclists and other athletes. It is safer because there are fewer vehicles involved and the weight can be carried in shorter segments. Some riders choose to use the Everesting Challenge for an endurance race. Others have chosen to run their attempt on a treadmill. Some others have attempted to run the route at home while in quarantine.
Nima Javaheri set a new Everesting record in March 2022. He reached an elevation of 38.703m along La Croisette, France. He ran at a weight of 260 watts. This is about the same power as running a marathon. He also achieved the longest "free vertical climb" of any Everesting rider.
Everesting can seem difficult, but it is really not. Zwift lets you create your own Everesting experience, or you may ride your favorite hill at your home. You can then track your achievements on Strava and other GPS tracking devices. An Everesting can be done on a trainer or on gravel roads.
The Everesting Challenge is a race that focuses on individual endurance. The COVID 19 global pandemic inspired it. Fewer than 9,000 people in the world have ever attempted Everesting. The official Everesting website lists all Everesting-related achievements. You will also find the official Mount Everest Challenge records and the Everesting Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame contains the names of the most prominent Everesters as well as the length of successful Everestings and the shortest Everestings.
George Mallory is the great-grandson and explorer of Britain, and one of their earliest everesting attempts. Mallory completed the Everesting while riding a bicycle. He climbed 8,848m which is equivalent to the height of the tallest peak in the world. Mallory was able to return home safely in 1995. He also cycled Mount Donna Buang, an Australian mountain within the Mount Everest range. This was his fastest Everesting ride.
Another Everesting, which you can do online via Zwift or with your trainer, is a virtual one. For those who want to participate in a physical Everesting, there are many mountains to choose from throughout the Hudson Valley.
