The HARDEST sport climbing MARATHON in the WORLD?

Спорт

Follow Alex through a full day of climbing and biking around his home area, the Frankenjura, while he attempts the crazy challenge of climbing 10 routes from 8b to 8c in 10 hours, using an e-bike to get to each route.
The lineup of routes includes only old-school classics, from crimpy vertical to overhanging and pockety.
And this proves again, the Frankenjura is just the best area in the world for a casual training day ;-)

    Cool implicit message. So much of elite climbing is about travelling around half the globe, and while that may just be how it's got to be for the best, it's refreshing to see a pro appreciating the local. Music choice is fire btw.

    The fact that he can do 10 of those rputes in a day foretells that he won't have much new routes to enjoy before long haha, for those monsters of climbing i guess it makes a bit more sense to travel to find something that feels properly hard for them, but for most of us that will never reach the max grade of our locals crags it makes a bit less sense for sure

    We've got a new sport crag in Scotland and on E bikes it's a 25 minute very pleasant run on on forest tracks, walking is 1.5 hours and normal bike is a knackering 50 minus or so depending on your fitness. You can do it without Ebikes but with them it's a pleasure several times a week and even better it often works in winter which is a rarity in these parts.
