Here is the Challenge: First man or woman to climb 1oo,000 feet wins. Pippo has skinned up biggie 6 times @2,200ft/time giving him 13,200 ft so far. I've done Teton Pass 4 times @ 1,200ft/time, Snowking 2 times @1,550ft/time, and the randonnee race at Targhee @5000ft giving me 12,9000 ft. I think we should include the cycling house crew and all their trips up Mt. Lemon. I would like to keep cycling a separate category from running, skinning, hiking, but if you have a way to document elevation gain with a powertap or GPS on a ride by all means include it in the cycling category. The deadline in April 1st. I think this is a very achievable goal and many will probably surpass it. Everything is on the honor system, don't be a lame ass and pad your numbers. If you need a way to measure elevation gain on a run or ski I'm sure we all know a couple of dorks who own those fancy watches. My guess is Brice and Ice start running Jumbo in the mornings and Pippo goes ski crazy and crushes Biggie five days a week. Horan will hike jumbo once, Joel will continue with his 20 minute runs and Shaun and Toby will climb 30K on nordic this winter. I'll be lucky to see 100K by April. As for the cycling house crew, we could see some big numbers from them. Parsens and Mulfield are in a different group because I bet they have already put in 100K this winter, but I want to know their total numbers. Send your numbers to me and if this gets big enough we might have to start a continuously updated vertical chart.

Just raped biggy and had 63 ounces of microbrew after with the c man tonight. He wishes to join the challenge and already has a ticker of 20,000 vertical.
I also have skinned the hill the last three nights bringing me to 8 summits. A total of 17,600 vertical. I have a few predictions for the vertical challenge:
-Doug, myself and Chris will all hit 100,000 at our own pace.
-Tucson crew will hit 100,00 but i'm putting a * by it cuz the weather is so nice there.
-Parsons and French will hit one million vertical.
-Missoula will continue to be soft as a baby's butt, Plyo's in the park is basically a pre-op screening for a sex change operation. Sack up and live hard Missoula.
-Anyone from Bozeman care to join the fun or are you guys glued to your powertap readouts while riding your trainers in someone's basement? email that to your coach.
