Does anyone know what the current FKT is for the NY portion of the Appalachian trail? I am tentatively planning a supported attempt on July 1st-2nd travelling SoBo. The goal will be under 24 hours.

UPDATE: I will be attempting a supported FKT for the NY portion of the Appalachian Trail on July 1st, 2017 traveling SoBo. As far as I know there is no current record, so this will be to set the bar. Training has been going well and I am updating my goal to 20 hours. I will be starting at 4:00AM so hitting my goal would put the record on a single calendar day.
If I reach the NY/NJ state line within my 20 hour goal time I will continue the journey in an attempt to break Matt Kirk's 24-hour record of 99 miles. The end point of my attempt will become RT 517 in Glenwood NJ (or beyond if I have time) which is 99.9 miles from the start, according to the Summit Post trail mileage chart.
When finished I will provide a Strava link as well as a blog write-up.
Cheers!
