That Alex Honnold is a special kind of elite athlete goes without saying.

That Hans Florine could set world records in the same event 20 years apart, climbing almost twice as fast at 46 as 26, might make him even more special.

You realize that is a fantastic marathon time too? Imagine running 26 miles and finding out some guy got up ElCap in about the same time.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
