Congrats to Jim Walmsley for a fantastic Grand Canyon R2R2R Run! Jamil, this is probably the best short Grand Canyon running video I have seen so far. I'm so impressed you were able to hold the camera up steady while chasing Jim down the uneven stairsteps coming down from North Rim to the Redwall Bridge. So glad you were there to capture the moment!

He still has it. I’m sure there is someone who could, but your average top marathoner would need to work on their technical climbing and descending to tackle the canyon that fast.

Can someone explain how he does this with almost no water or food? I'm somewhat in shape, and when I ran R to R to R (granted, it was hotter, in late spring) I needed liters and liters of water and sandwiches, bars, gels, salt tabs, etc. etc. What is happening inside his body that lets him run with no fuel?
@runsteepgethigh6 ай бұрын
He did have fuel with him and had a crew meet at the North Rim. It’s a sub 6 hour effort in October when it was cool out and so he didn’t need a lot.
