TrekHawk, I hope you've been training hard. I've got the Davis tour all mapped out for you. 6 bridges and 6 tunnels in 14 miles with only 120 ft of climbing.

I am shooting for 13,000 in April. Got started with 500 today!

Alright, I'm joining a little late but I only recently (ie in the last hour or so) figured out how to retrieve elevation data from my Garmin GPS. 8 days of April have gone by and I've logged a little over 7000 feet of climbing on my bike, 9700 running.
So I think I'll shoot for 25 000 feet riding this month. Running, maybe 20 000. I don't think I should be running hills as much as I have been.
How's everyone doing so far?Living life like there's no tomorrow.

Good luck with your April targets for riding and running.

I think I'm on target for the number of feet, but looking at my schedule, I'm not sure when I'll have time to climb two mountains.

Wahine, nice to see you here!
Boy, I am not on target at all. My mom and dad both died in the past 4 months, and we are now in the process of packing up the house to sell, and I happen to also live there currently! This week was really a lost week on the bike, and I am really noticing the difference in recovery times on days when I am also really emotionally stressed.
Anyhow, I have done a whopping 1000 feet or so over 2 short rides. I have some work to do to make my goal, but I am still committed, and I had a really relaxing day on the bike today, despite getting rained and hailed on!
