Inclinathon – Manitou Incline 13 Times in a Row

Think it’s hard to hike the Manitou Incline once? How about 2 times in a row? Back in January, Brandon Stapanowich proposed the brutal Inclinathon consisting of 13 Incline round trips.

It wasn’t until a few days ago that Ed Baxter read the post on Pikes Peak Sports. Ed and his twin brother Fred climb the Incline often. Ed thought why not give the Inclinathon a try.

He started his Inclinathon attempt at 3 AM on Saturday. Although he struggled on lap 9 and took a nap, he finished 13 Incline round trips in 13 hours and 15 minutes. Ed’s the first to do the Inclinathon but some others a planning on attempting it next week.
