Jornet makes history at Tahoe!
Kilian Jornet’s time around the Tahoe Rim is yet to be confirmed officially, however 38 hours and 32 mins is near as damn it. We expect that they have all probably gone for a lie down – they all deserve it! The salomon running Twitter page was a great source of news on this epic effort…
DONE! 38hrs32’ Respect Kilian 6H20’ less than the previous record hold by T2, which already was an outstanding performance!
A dazed Jornet said:
“I’m so glad that’s over with – it began to feel surreal and I don’t really know where I am at the moment… It was a tough run but the most difficult part was towards the end. From Echo lake to Barker Pass we had to contend with the icy wind, snow and endless uphills – I couldn’t have done it without all the pacers and the Salomon team.”
We’re sure that comprehensive details and interviews will follow from the Salomon squad Stateside…
