Kilian Jornet is the dominant mountain runner of all time and among the world’ s greatest athletes. In search of inspiration outside formal competition, Kí lian embarked on a self-styled adventure project dubbed Summits of My Life— establishing the fastest known recorded times (“ FKT”) to ascend and descend the world’ s most challenging peaks, including the Matterhorn, Kilimanjaro, Mont Blanc, Denali and even the planet’ s tallest summit. Six days after he summitted Everest, he repeated the performance— an accomplishment for which he was named Adventurer of the Year by National Geographic. He lives in Norway.
