As I mentioned in #10Everestsin2021 - February Progress Report, I am on track to climb the elevation of Mt. Everest 10 times in 2021.
On Monday, March 8, I went on a ride that brought my total for the year up over 59,803 feet.
As I'm sure you know, Mt Everest is 29,032 feet high. 2 x 29,032 = 58,064.
So, I've climbed Everest a little more than twice so far this year. (2.06 Everests)
According to Strava, this puts my 3,914 feet ahead of plan to reach 300,000 feet climbed in 2021.
Not bad considering it is still winter here in Colorado.
So, I'm doing well. I'll continue on with the bike climbing. If you'd like to follow along and see how I'm doing throughout the year ... bookmark Sheppy's Blog: #10Everestsin2021
Don't forget ... I'm raising money to help fight Childhood Cancer by signing up for the Great Cycle Challenge again this year.
My plan is to ride 1000 miles in September. Between now and then, I'll beg for people to donate money on my GCC Rider Page:
If you can afford it ... head over there and make a donation. I'd really appreciate the support. If you don't want to do it now ... don't worry ... I'll be reminding you at least once a month until at least the end of October.
