GLEN TURNER did achieve the fastest crossing of America but here are a few  Big Caveats.

1)  He chose to complete this crossing with a vehicle to carry all gear (130 lbs) which allowed him to coast on the down hills (still had to push it uphill) consequently he did not run the entire time.

2)  He could also scoot by pushing with one foot and resting the other on a support bar.

3)  He chose a southern route that is much shorter than the more traditional routes that are around 3100 miles.

The fastest crossing of the US was 47 days averaging 67 miles per day this was done fully supported with a crew.  The fastest crossing Unsupported, was 56 days averaging 45 miles per day.  Glen Turner crossed in 37 days and averaged 71 miles per day.

His achievement  was amazing and extremely challenging  but not "pure" running. It is a new form of enhanced foot travel.

Glen is amazing.  He's at the top.
