Kiev fire set an unusual record

The lifeguard ran the half-marathon in full uniform.

Metropolitan fire Mr Pan set in Lviv, a Ukrainian record. He was the first firefighter, who ran the half marathon (22 km) in full uniform of the rescuer (20 kg). To overcome the distance he spent 2 hours, 14 minutes and 53.6 seconds.

By the way, Vladimir last week was “the strongest rescue of Ukraine”, which took part in the International competitions of fire and rescue services. Recall, the international competition “Firefighter Combat Challenge” held in Ukraine for the first time, gathering 16 teams from different areas.

Each of the participants had to overcome a difficult obstacle course. It was divided into two tracks – blue and red. The first thing the rescuers “stormed” the high tower, carrying on his shoulder a heavy load. Once on top, you had to pull on the rope 20-kg roller, quickly go down, to knock with a hammer clamped bar and save the “victim” – 80-kilogram dummy.

Next – run with the fire hose and aimed shot a water jet at a target. In General, testing at a distance resembled the conditions that rescuers face in daily work.
