After the Everest climbing season got canceled, I opted to go for the FKT from EBC back to Lukla. A typhoon was moving through so the whole day was spent in snow and rain as I descended further to Lukla. I started with my running pack with water for the day and planned to do this unsupported but after spilling my water with 15 miles left - I ended up getting a liter on the trail thus it was self-supported.
