New for 2022 “The Holy Mother 48 Hour” an Everest summit and descent event, in other words, you have 48 hours to climb 29,032 feet and 29,032 feet of descent. The course is a 6 “ish” mile loop with 2,400 “ish” feet of gain per loop. The loop starts at the base lodge and wanders to the top of the mountain seeking all the verticals we can cram into each loop. The downhill descent will be as much fun as the climb up! Your calves, quads, and your whole body will thank you for each loop you endure. A water stop will be placed on the course, and a full aid station will be available at the Start/Finish. The aid station will have quality race food you find at endurance races including broth, noodles, quesadillas, bacon, chips, candy, water, soda, sports drinks, PB&J, and more. Crew tents will be allowed near the Start/Finish aid station for runner support.
