In an incredible display of stair climbing, Finnish distance runner and orienteering competitor, Marten Bostrom completed a 400-metre stretch of stairs in 64.99 seconds, a time similar to what an athlete would run on the track for the same distance.
The stair-climbing display took place on Malminkartanonhuippu Park in Finland, an artificial hill near Helsinki, with the ascent consisting of 426 stairs.
Bostrom is known for his accomplishments in orienteering, a point-to-point sport that requires navigational skills while using a map in unfamiliar terrain. The 33-year-old won a gold medal at the 2013 World Orienteering Championships.
