Said to be nigh-on impossible, Mat "Squeaky" Hazley completed hiking's Triple Crown yesterday in 240 days, the fastest time on record, and only the second person to complete all three long-distance trails in a single year.
Averaging 40 to 45 miles a day, Squeaky finished the 2650 mile PCT, 2174 mile Appalachian Trail, and the 3100 mile Continental Divide Trail, travelling through 22 states and over 1 million feet of vertical acsent.
