Robert Karaś, 33, achieved his feat in Mexico this week with the record setting time of 67 hours 58 minutes and 1 second, beating the previous record by a staggering 4 hours and 41 minutes.
Following the death of his grandfather, Robert Wilkowiecki rebounded by not only smashing the Ironman world record set just weeks earlier by German superstar Jan Frodeno, but also by becoming the first Pole to complete a triathlon in under eight hours.
Karaś stormed to victory after a grueling 11.4km swim, 540km cycle, and 126.6km run - WITHOUT any breaks.
