Having found a perfect way to challenge herself, Guseva picked an extraordinary outfit for her mission: unlike her fellow runners, she was sporting medieval chainmail, which weighs 7 kg.
Keeping her nearly 24k followers updated on her progress via Instagram stories, the co-founder of a crossfit studio has revealed that the first 10 kilometers went perfectly; she even managed to keep the pace at 6.39 minutes per kilometer.
Even though she felt a drastic change of spirit after the 20-km mark and was overwhelmed by the heavy weight of the chain armor as she suffered from leg cramps and back pain, she managed to cover the distance in 5 hours and 25 minutes.
