From ExWeb:

Last Sunday, Tyler Andrews and Chris Fisher added FKTs on Ama Dablam to their list of fall successes. Andrews notched the speed record from Base Camp to the summit while Fisher ran from Pangboche village to the summit in record time.

Ama Dablam has seen ascents up different and interesting routes this fall, but the normal Southwest Ridge route remains busy and crowded. This didn’t hamper the American speedsters, who enjoyed perfect weather and conditions on the mountain.
Andrews summited in 6 hours 23 minutes, breaking Ama Dablam’s previous FKT, set last year by Matheo Jacquemoud of France.

Andrews himself had set the previous Pangboche-Ama Dablam summit record of 7h 4 min last year. This time, Fisher completed the 3000m of ascent and 12km of horizontal distance in 6h 44m. The entire round trip took him 11h 20m.
