Wai Ching conquers Las Vegas skyscraper


PETALING JAYA: It was double joy for world No. 1 tower runner Soh Wai Ching as he retained the USA Stair Climbing Championship title and became one of the record holders at the Stratosphere in Las Vegas, United States.

What is even sweeter is that, Wai Ching ran 108 floors involving 1,455 steps (height 260m) in 6:46, equalling the previous record set by Mexican tower runner Alexis Trujillo in 2020.
