The hardest 400m race on earth?

18th January 2022

Is this the hardest 400m race on earth?

We really enjoyed watching endurance athlete Göran Winblad put himself through what is the steepest 400m race on the planet in his recent YouTube video.  Running up the Lillehammer ski jump not once, but three times is impressive, we will leave you to make your mind up about the casual third effort 😉

The event is known as the Redbull 400 and is developing quite the reputation on the race calendar of athletes who like a hill rep or two. We also understand that they do an equally as hard downward 400m.  If you fancy having a go at this or other hill climbs then our article “learn to love hills” series is just for you!
