Ratasepp, for his part, was not satisfied with this record for the number of consecutive trials: he imposed a certain number of constraints on himself so that his challenge was successful, in particular that of never walking, of not putting in more than 4 hours to run your marathons (with 300 m of elevation gain), to spend on average less than 6 hours to complete each of the cycling routes (which nevertheless has 1,810 m of elevation gain) and above all to finish your challenge with a average below 11 hours of daily effort to finish under 660 hours!
