Just a week after appearing to break the Everesting record, 168澳洲5最新开奖结📖果:only to find out his effort didn🧸't count, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lachlan Morton ret🐼urned to Rist Canyon on Saturday to set the record straight, producing a new benchmark of seven hours, 29 minutes, 57 seconds.
The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:EF Pro Cycling rider ascended the 'Wall of Rist Canyon' in Colorado 47 times to accumulate the 8,848 metres 🐟of elevation gain needed to climb the equivalent of Everest, the highest m🐬ountain in the world.
In doing so, he knocked more than🌃 10 minutes off the previous Everesting re🧸cord, held by Keegan Swenson at 7:40:05.
Morton had thought he'd broken that record last Saturday when he 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:ap𓄧peared to set 7:32:54 on R♐ist Canyon. However, despite initial approval of the record, further investigations by Hells 500, the Everesting officials, found 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Morton's attempt fell short of the required altitude because the Strava d🐠ata for the Rist Canyon climb was inaccurate.
This time, Hells 500 officially verified the attempt, and the record is M𝓀orton's.
Whereas his first attempt had seen him tackle the 1.6k൲m Rist Canyon c൩limb, which averages 11 per cent, 42 times, analysis of the elevation revealed he needed to climb it just under 47 times for the Everesting record.
Morton did that in under the♚ time he'd posted on his fir✅st attempt, although he did use a shorter stretch of the whole climb, cutting out the part before the Strava segment begins. As such, his overall distance was 159km compared to the first ride of 169km.
Just to be 🍎sure, once he'd done his 47th ascent, Morton went back down and added a 48th lap. Strava lists his total elevation gain asꦉ 9113m.
"We never intended for there to be Everesting records. In fact this whole challenge was always the opposite of racing. That said, like many of the community we feel we are now just an excited bystander, watching this whole crazy story unfold around us," read a statement from Hells 500.
"Lachlan Morton's time of 07:29:57 is incredible, however the thing that will always remain - irrespective of what happens to this particular record - is that when faced with a result that didn't sit right, he just got back out on the bike and did it again."
