World record alert: Rémi Bonnet sets new fastest time for 1km vertical
Share
Some runs are just pure suffering... and pure glory! 🔥
Huge respect for Swiss athlete Rémi Bonnet, who just smashed the men's Vertical Kilometre world record.
He climbed 1,000m straight up (that's like running up The Shard more than 3 times!) in an unbelievable **28 minutes and 58 seconds**.
He called it "suffering from the start to the finish" - a feeling we can all relate to on our toughest hills, even if they aren't *quite* this big! 😂
What's your next running challenge? Let this be the inspiration you need to go for it!
