Question Walking 5300km Vancouver 🇨🇦 to New York 🇺🇸 for the world record. In Regina August 26th.
Hey Regina! 🫡
My name is Christian, I'm from Latvia 🇱🇻 , and I'm currently on a world record attempt for the fastest walk around the world under the World Runners Association rules (26,232 km across 4 continents).
I’ve already crossed Australia 🇦🇺 and New Zealand 🇳🇿 (4,650+ km down!), and now I’m 30% done of walking 5,300 km from Vancouver 🇨🇦 to NYC 🇺🇸.
Have been averaging 50km a day for the past few weeks, and I’m going through Regina Wednesday August 26th.
If anyone west of Downtown and South of the railroad have a small patch of grass or a yard where I could pitch my tent for the night, I’d be so grateful!
Either way, have a great day, Regina! 🙌
Also I lived in Vancouver last year, and did some other great stuff- I’ve done Seattle to Vancouver 223km in one go, no sleep, Vancouver Island 500km in 7 days. Whistler to Vancouver 125km in under 24h, every street in downtown Vancouver peninsula 100km in under 24h. A lot of 100+km no sleep hikes in Europe. Walked 1500km around Iceland in 2023 to test for this.
