Facts and Stats

A few facts and stats from halfway through our ride, from leaving my house in London last Friday....

Total distance: 514 miles
Total time: 52 hrs, 19 mins
Total ascent: 22,530 feet
Total calories: 23,625

I'm not sure how accurate the calories figure is, but given how much I've eaten on this rest day alone I wouldn't be surprised if my calorie intake isn't far off this amount!

To put the total ascent figure into perspective, it is about 6.4 Snowdons. And as the height of Mt Everest is about 29,000 feet, we can expect by the end of this little jaunt to have exceeded this in total ascent.
