The Challenge
Climb as many vertical metres as possible in 30min (U17 - Masters) and 15 mins (U13/U15).
Runners use a slope, hill or steps in their local area and record total vertical ascent. The challenge can be completed like hill reps or as a hilly run, planning the run to have as much vertical ascent as possible in your local area.
Most runners will live in an urban environment. To reflect this, the maximum ascent for one climb should be approximately 100m.
The total ascent and descent should be approx. the same.
