<\/p>\nRiding Salkantay by Bike to Machu Picchu and in 6 Hours by an American Marathon Runner.<\/p>\n
This feat performed by “LEE LAU”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Lee is an avid outdoorsman who goes on many adventures with his loving and sometimes worried wife, Sharon. Lee has been an advocate for bike trails for 20 years. He can occasionally be found working his day job as an intellectual property attorney. As a resident of Whistler and Vancouver, British Columbia, Lee’s playground extends primarily to western Canada.” See full article<\/p>\n
Salkantay Mountain is the highest peak of the Vilcabamba mountain range in the Peruvian Andes. The name Salkantay comes from the word Quecha sallqa, which means wild, savage, uncivilized. This is an incredibly appropriate name for the epic journey we completed in November 2017. Words by “LEE LAU”<\/p>\n

But American runner Tyler Andrews is not your average hiker.<\/p>\n
In just 6 hours, 13 minutes and 3 seconds, Andrews has recorded the fastest known time on the challenging Salkantay Inca Trail.<\/p>\n

Apparently Salkantay Trek is an alternative for many athletes who have an adventurous spirit, perhaps inspired by the culture and history of Peru and Machupicchu.<\/p>\n
