From our village we can see the Belmont transmitter 27 miles away and the Lincolnshire Wolds are visible from our back bedroom window (13 miles away) It's pretty flat with a few undulations from here to there. But there are a couple of ridges in the other direction that are miles wide so not everywhere is at sea level.

Realised that one of the many graphs on the Train page include 'weekly ascent in km' so although it doesn't give totals, and it's rounded to the nearest 100m, it'll help me to keep track of my 10k challenge.

If you set the timescale to the appropriate year in the training log, and select the summary page you can see your annual 'fetch measured' ascent.... 51k meters last year for me, so around 32 miles. Not sure I'll get much more than that this year, but could be fun to try

Lovely Mr Fetch has updated the thread title
The vertical 10k is a great idea. Far more sensible for many.
Nothing more from me this week, new job and actually having to commute is a bit of a shock to the system. Find a hill at the weekend I think.

Thanks mbln! It seems that in total, across running, cycling and swimming (:-0) I ascended 8144m in 2016. This includes 74 m while OW swimming. How did that happen?

This looks fun. I racked up just short of 14 Km of ascent running last year. I was training/running Beach Head marathon so not sure if I'll achieve that again.

It's metres. 10,000m would be a reasonable target for me this year, in that case
