At 04:46 on July 11th, Kilian Jornet and Mathéo Jacquemoud left the church in Chamonix to set a new record for CHAMONIX-MONT BLANC-CHAMONIX.
You will see from the images provided by Tiffany Sabil that Kilian arrived in Chamonix beating the old record of 5:10.
Update: Matheo did not break the record. Apparently he took a fall.
The time has been confirmed at 4:57.
Congratulations to both Kilian and Mathéo. This record has lasted since 1990. Quite an incredible by Kilian Jornet and Mathéo for the support.
Many thanks to Tiffany Sabil for being in Chamonix and providing these images.
We need this stuff in the Olympics.
