The 2005 record was just broken:

Jennifer Pharr Davis "...had gone through five pairs of hybrid hiking and running shoes while averaging about 47 miles a day, or nearly two marathons.

"No one keeps official speed records for the trail, but Davis said she broke Andrew Thompson's 2005 mark for the fastest supported "thru hike" by just over 24 hours."
