It looks like the people are making the subject of pride just to emphasize on where they stand about Puskhar Shah. I wouldn't believe it should be a matter of pride to present raw datas. I wouldn't worry even the data has some thousands + or - . The importance here is how someone can sacrifice 11 years just for cycling. It is certainly not a joke. Yes, name and fame comes to that person who has courage and determination. A good thing for Nepal. Personification of "Gurkha" is Puskhar Shah. Even if you have millions of dollars, you can't easily set a journey (of uncertainity) like that. Even if you love cycling, you can't bike 5-15 hours literally everyday for 11 hours. You need determination and real courage, and of course a Nepali maan. And, really, it needs a chokho Nepali maan to appreciate to someone, too! Or we would be a luchha bandar who can't see other's good doing!
