Kilian Jornet wins the Skyrunning event at the World Championships held in Chamonix and also achieves victory in the Vertical Kilometre.
 
Athletes climbed 2,486m along a 42km-circuit, shortened due to bad weather conditions.
 
"I did not expect to be at this level. It has been a very encouraging surprise. I'm also glad for Michel and Tom, who finished in podium positions, as they are distinguished runners and also great friends. Achieving a double victory is something special, and I could not feel happier with this World Championship," declared Kilian Jornet.
