In what time can Kilian Jornet run a Vertical Kilometer? | Salomon TV

Спорт

VK is all about pure performance. It's not about technique or strategy it's just how much you can work and how strong you are. Watch as Kilian explores Norways epic landscapes to find the perfect spot to break the fastest known time "FKT" of a VK held by Philip Gotsch which is under 29 minutes.

    Doing both the VK and the skyrace in Tromsö. Because its not easy to train for that terrain when you live in the flatter part of Sweden.

    Wow! Super impressive! I haven't attempted a VK, but even doing the 2000 feet of ascent on the Manitou Incline in 30 minutes was really tough for me. I can't imagine how difficult it is to go under 30 minutes on an extra 1200 feet! I would think the best VK route would be some sort of super steep, sustained class 3-4 thing. That last "trail" looked pretty close to optimal.
