Hello world! As announced on social media, I will be attempting this route ROUND TRIP starting at 00:00am on March 16, 2020. The current FKT (not listed here) is by Pemba Sherpa and is 30h00 from around 2010, according to various corroborated local sources. I will also be going for the up and down records en route. I will be attempting this route self supported.

What an amazing result. Well done.
