I was going to post about this earlier in the day, but the ‘Explorers Web‘ website was down – maybe from too much traffic?

American Tyler Andrews summited Manaslu today shortly before 1:30 pm, in a nine-hour and 52-minute blitz from Base Camp. He has smashed the FKT (fastest known time) record on the mountain. Pemba Gelje Sherpa broke the previous mark last year.

Tyler seems to have been wearing the La Sportiva Cyklon Cross GTX, which is nuts to think that a non-insulated shoes like this can carry you to over 8,000 meters. But I guess, if you’d do mountaineering like this in a trail running shoe, I suppose it better be a La Sportiva.

Via Alex Bond who’s my main man track interesting FKTs, and anyone running in La Sportiva shoes.
