The fastest half marathon wearing lederhosen is 1 hr 26 min 26 sec and was achieved by Emil Pålsson (Sweden) in Helsingborg, Skåne, Sweden on 4 September 2021.
Emil says his childhood dream was to become a Guinness World Records title holder. He accomplished this at the HOKA Helsingborg Half Marathon. His lederhosen consisted of a green/white checkered shirt, knee-high socks, a green hat with red feather and more. He was not the only one in fancy dress, as for the majority of the race he ran alongside a few friends also in costume (Clown, Ninja, Pyjamas, Super Mario).
