Watch HOKA Athlete and professional ultrarunner Hayden Hawks as he sets the record for the fastest-known time on the 48.7-mile traverse across Zion National Park. The Zion Traverse is a point-to-point crossing of Zion National Park in Southwest Utah, which features 6,463 feet of vertical ascent and 6,776 of descent. Hawks shattered the previous record by over 30 minutes with a time of 6:50:49.
In celebration of Hayden Hawks’ Fastest-Known Time across Zion National Park, HOKA donated $10,000 to the National Park Foundation, the official charity of America’s national parks and nonprofit partner to the National Park Service.
"I hope to raise awareness of the importance of National Parks and the protection of this land. I hope that this FKT will bring more attention to our public lands and raise awareness that we need them; that we should invest more in these lands and create more of them."- HOKA Athlete Hayden Hawks
