WMATA Transit Race 8:54 Record
Segment 0: Getting to Ashburn

Lucas Wall established Nov. 16, 2022, the new speed record to pass through all 97 Washington Metrorail stations in a single day, making the 14-segment journey from the brand new Ashburn Station to Huntington Station in 8 Hours 54 Minutes. This contest is called the WMATA Transit Race – also known as D.C. Metro Challenge (WMATA = Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority).

This is the pre-race video dubbed “Segment 0” in which I walk to the new Innovation Center Station and take the newly opened Silver Line west to the terminal at Ashburn Station to get in position to start the race.
