Wai Ching Scores Another Record

Fresh of another race win in Estonia, national & world #1 tower runner Soh Wai Ching adds yet another record under his belt, where in conjunction with World Health Day last Friday, the 28 year old conquered the "Farthest Simulated Distance Climbed on a Stair Machine in One Hour". He climbed a distance of 1.64km in 60 minutes, which to put it in perspective is almost four times the height of the KL tower.

Pending confirmation from the Guinness World Records, this would be his second GWR achievement after gaining the "Greatest Vertical Height Stair Climbing" accolate a couple of years back. He joins us on the programme as we recount the feat while previewing what's to come in 2023.
