Hi everyone!
I just read the post about Scott Williamson's current attempt to break his old PCT unassisted speed record and thought I'd post up another record attempt that just got underway. The athlete's name is Sam Fox and he's doing this to raise money for Parkinson's research. His stated goal is to complete the trail in under 65 days.

The blog his support crew is updating: http://www.runwhileyoucan.org/follow-sam/
He started at the Canadian border at midnight on Thursday the 25th, knocking out the first 66 mile section in 21 hours. He has a support team of two friends in an RV with 40 planned resupplies along the trail.
After reading about Williamson's attempt, am I correct in saying the overall PCT speed record is Scott's 65 day unassisted hike? Nobody has beat his 65 day attempt on an assisted hike?
