  • Kilian Jornet Guanya La Pikes Peak Marathon Amb La Millor Marca Dels
    Curses | Redacció | Actualitzat el 25/08/2019 a les 21:36 Kilian Jornet guanya la Pikes Peak Marathon amb la millor marca dels últims 20 anys Aquest segle ningú havia estat capaç de córrer la prova americana en menys de 3 hores i mitja Kilian Jornet durant la Pikes Peak Marathon 2019 | Philipp Reiter/Salomon Kilian Jornet és el nou líder de les Golden Trail Series (https://www.goldentrailseries.com) després de guanyar la tercera cursa de muntanya d'aquesta temporada. El català havia anunciat un calendari competitiu reduït per aquest estiu però ha sabut mantenir la brillantor de sempre per aconseguir un triplet memorable en tres proves tan exigents com Zegama, Sierre-Zinal i la Pikes Peak Marathon. De totes tres, la cursa nord-americana és la que menys s'adapta a les condicions de Jornet però el català ha imprimit un fort ritme des del principi i ha corregut en solitari tota la cursa amb un domini enorme davant la resta de rivals. D'aquesta manera Kilian Jornet guanya per segona vegada (en dos participacions) la Pikes Peak Marathon després del primer èxit assolit el 2012. Aquell any va endur-se la victòria amb un temps de 3:40:26 força lluny de l'exhibició duta a terme aquest diumenge amb un registre final de 3:27:28. Amb aquesta marca el català es converteix en el primer corredor del segle XXI en completar el recorregut de 42,8 quilòmetres i 2.382 metres de desnivell positiu en menys de 3 hores i mitja. Com advertíem a la prèvia de la cursa, aquest era un objectiu a l'abast d'un esportista en plena forma després de destrossar el rècord històric de la Sierre Zinal fa tot just 15 dies.
