VERTICAL K+ - SUMMER OF VERT VIRTUAL WORLD CUP
This is for you. The mountain lover, the hill slayer, the vert chaser. A brand new virtual race series for the global trail running community focused on sweet, painful, rewarding vertical gain.
Each race offers a different challenge. Points are awarded based on your standing and carry over to the World Cup leaderboard. Run all three or just a single one.
Compete, share, connect, celebrate!
THE CHALLENGE
A vertical kilometer is 3280ft of climbing. But not everyone lives in the shadow of a mountain with a climb that long. That's why we're counting the up and the down in this challenge. That way you can run repeats on a shorter hill as well. Your activity needs to show at least 3280ft of climbing and the clock stops when you're back down to where you started.
We rank all runners based on how fast they completed their Vertical K+. If you climb more, that's on you. If you climb less we'll add time to your final score*.
*Exact ratio is still being tested.
This race counts a single activity and can be run on any day between July 10 - 13.
HOW IT WORKS
You need to self report your activity and upload your results. This requires trust, so please don't cheat. These races are cheap. The giveaways are awarded randomly no matter your placement.
