End August 2022, I set the first unsupported GR70 in 4 days,19h and 40 min. I had just a 5 liter decathlon backpack, a gopro, batterypack, phone, Kway, half a 1cm foam mattrass, and re-usable survival blanket. It was in the middle of a heatwave (still shivering in the cold during the nights) so no need of a tent and sleeping bag.

I had no tracking but took many photos + screenshots Mapy GPS of direction panels that are timestamped to prove the record. But I've to find the harddrie where I stored it as had no time yet to write the details.
