    This one was crazy! Dolfin's elevator freestyle, Ryan's sprint, the Bison's fight up so many stairs! What did you find most impressive in this video? More from this shoot here: instagram.com/nicksymmonds

      But I thought Nick’s endurance was the most impressive. He could’ve saved some energy on a few of the flights if he knew where the elevator was

      What killed you was doing repeat races up the stairs. Clearly to any floor you would have taken it as Ryan proved at the very end. One set of fresh legs vs elevator has the person winning.

    I have done many races up the CN tower in Toronto (about 110 floors) - best time is 12:30. Stairs are tough, you feel like throwing up at the top (if you are really pushing yourself). I also did 7x in a row one day =about 770 floors or almost 1.5 vertical miles.

    You should've waited until the elevator doors opened before beginning each race, not when he pressed the button. Not only does this eliminate the factor of having to wait for the elevator to reach floor one each time, but it gives Nick time to cool down a bit before going again.

    I've done vertical mile races (about 570 stories 8 x 73 floors). I have done many sports and this was the worst I have felt after. It didn't help that the air was terrible in the stairways. Elevators were waiting at the top of the building for us and so there is only about a minute rest before you are starting again. My time was about 1 hr 50 min. The world record holder lapped me 3 times.
