I see no reason not to include every attempt made. Please reply to this thread with the time attained on your latest attempt. Don't post the write-up here, though, I only want to see the times so I can add them to the list.
Clearly, I've omitted some results - but not deliberately. I'd like to see this become a fully comprehensive list of all attempts of the All Lines Challenge, so please do reply to this thread stating the time and the competitors involved for any omitted attempt.

The All lines Challenge record time has been smashed by almost FIVE minutes!!
Someone has just recorded a time of 0:52:01. I won't reveal who until they post their claim to the record...

Nope! It was a genuine, honest Tube Challenger. They will announce it soon enough...

Go ahead, Anthony- update your list!
Had a bloody good run, with some excellent connections, and have worked out that had they all been perfect (which, lets face it, would never happen), it could have been around the 45 minute mark!
I think there's still some life left to come in this challenge!
Now, if anybody can beat me before April 1st, hats off to you. If not, I get to hold it for five months. How cool!

Ooooh, very good.
We did say at the time we did it that someone with really good connections could go quicker.

Well done Chris! Great time. Did Geoff and Neil use the same route for their previous fastest time?
My route I came up with in 10 minutes the other day starts at Shadwell and has the same first two legs, but then does mysterious and wonderful things. Should maybe try it again soon.....
