Everesting is an activity in which cyclists ascend and descend a given hill multiple times, in order to have cumulatively climbed 8848 meters (the elevation of Mt. Everest).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WHAT IS EVERESTING? )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=THE RULES - EVERESTING )〕 The first event described as "Everesting" was by George Mallory, grandson of mountain climber George Mallory. The younger Mallory ascended Mount Donna Buang in 1994, having ridden eight "laps" of the 1069 meter hill. The format and rules were cemented by Andy van Bergen, inspired by the story of Mallory's effort.〔 In the first official group effort, van Bergen organized 65 riders, 40 of whom finished the Everesting attempt. ==Notable Everesting rides== * Craig Cannon began an Everesting attempt and turned it into a world record for most elevation ascended in 48 hours, at 29,146 meters. * Ryan Yust was the youngest, at age 16, to Everest. He climbed Los Alamos Road outside Santa Rosa, California 43 times. * The first woman to Everest was Sarah Hammond in February 2014, climbing Australia's Mount Buffalo eight times. * Scottie Weiss has Everested the fastest, climbing the elevation in just over eight hours and 58 minutes. He did this on Mill Mountain near Roanoke, Virginia, climbing it 48 times. * Frank Garcia was the first to "virtually Everest", riding Zwift's Watopia Wall 314 times. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Everesting」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
