Listeners may have heard Greg talk about his latest challenge - an attempt at the 24 hr team relay burpee world record. Instigated by Nick Gibbins a team of 3 men and 3 women will attempt to do over 12,000 burpees in a 24 hr period to raise funds for Motor Neurone Disease. Three of the team are mid life athletes and fair to say exploring the boundaries of what we think is feasible for those of us in middle age.
This is the story of their attempt to break that world record over the weekend of 11-12 March 2023.
