U.S Potatoes Powers Up Soh Wai Ching Towards A New Guinness World Record Now I’ve been following our Malaysian champion towerrunner athlete, Soh Wai Ching for a while now, even since I was invited by U.S Potatoes to cover an event at TM Tower many moons ago. Recently there’s been great news for Malaysia’s very own champion towerrunner (World No. 2 and Asia No. 1 towerrunner). Guess what is it?  The subject title would have given it away. Yes, Soh has successfully attained a new Guinness World Records (GWR) by clinching the title of “ Greatest Vertical Height Stair Climbing in One Hour (Male)”, beating previous record holder Mr David Robles Tapia from Spain.
