    This one was crazy! Dolfin's elevator freestyle, Ryan's sprint, the Bison's fight up so many stairs! What did you find most impressive in this video? More from this shoot here: instagram.com/nicksymmonds

      What killed you was doing repeat races up the stairs. Clearly to any floor you would have taken it as Ryan proved at the very end. One set of fresh legs vs elevator has the person winning.

You go from floor 2 to floor 82, my personal record is just under 17 minutes. February 5th, 2023. Looking forward to seeing you there.

    You should've waited until the elevator doors opened before beginning each race, not when he pressed the button. Not only does this eliminate the factor of having to wait for the elevator to reach floor one each time, but it gives Nick time to cool down a bit before going again.

    I've done vertical mile races (about 570 stories 8 x 73 floors). I have done many sports and this was the worst I have felt after. It didn't help that the air was terrible in the stairways. Elevators were waiting at the top of the building for us and so there is only about a minute rest before you are starting again. My time was about 1 hr 50 min. The world record holder lapped me 3 times.
