    Myself and Gary are the current 12 and 24 hour record holders, and can absolutely confirm that 3-legged running isn’t easy, but loads of fun. Nice work Heather, Mark and James

    Fastest swim, bike, run holding an egg in a spoon. Pretty sure you would be setting the benchmark.

    • @RobDickson69
      @RobDickson69 Pƙed rokem

      Exactly what I thought. Perhaps the fastest 3 legged mile by CZcams presenters is worth looking for.

  • @robertjansen6019
    @robertjansen6019 Pƙed rokem +13

    Just checking if anyone else has noticed the counting error.
    Strapping another person to the chain only adds 1 leg (and I am fairly confident 3 + 1 does not equal 5). This makes it a four legged mile and you would probably be up against dogs or horses. Get ready to run a sub 2 minute mile 😁

    Guinness just rejected my request to challenge ‘longest scarf knitted while running a marathon’ I’m planning to reapply though! Think it was just a clerical error. Would be glad to compete against a GTN host if you have any knitters on the team!

    @elizabethdawne Pƙed rokem +3

    this was very entertaining to watch. Perhaps a few ballroom lessons prior to a second attempt? Clearly all 3 presenters are extremely talented runners/athletes. A little help learning to move with another person will probably take you over the finish line. Learning to move with power and control while remaining in contact with another person often takes a lot of practice. Standard dances like quickstep, tango, waltz, foxtrot, etc are done with body contact.

    Along with the sack race, bean bag race, wheel barrow race and the egg and spoon race you've just about got a 1970's primary school sports day...how do I know...because I raced them all.. hilarious...😀

    @SBoots29 Pƙed rokem +3

    Heather Twisted? No. Nice try. I think with practice you guys could do it. Happy New Year to the GTN crew. Heres to a great year. Stay healthy and safe to all.

    This was a scouts sports day staple in the 70s. And I know this because me and my scout mate Johnny Stubbs won it a couple of times. And we beat the grown-ups !

    try 'Wife Carrying', less co-ordination required

  • @RhinoJoeOutdoors
    @RhinoJoeOutdoors Pƙed rokem +2

    Probably harder because of the difference in height.

    When I run its always a 3 legged mile

  • @The1trueDave
    @The1trueDave Pƙed rokem

    Would it be within the rules to put your arms over each other's shoulders but still have them bound together, say around the biceps? I mean as long as the arms were within 20cm that should still be OK right? And I think there's a lot to be said for picking a partner with the same stride length/ rate (not necessarily leg length) although that's harder to measure of course...

    The 3 legged marathon is just under 4 hours or approx 9min/mile, you all should give that a try :)

  • @dsm1891

    Is there a category for fastest mile carrying a sack of potatoes or something? I suspect a strong person who could run 7 or 8 minutes would take that :-)

  • @Turtlefarm
    @Turtlefarm Pƙed rokem

    I’m very skilled at this.. the key is counting 1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2, out loud
 Last time I did this
 I was winning.. my partner and I had practiced for 20 minutes before the race
 we were out in first.. massive head start
 20 feet from the finish line for no reason this kid tied to my leg decides to collapse
 I distinctly remember dragging his limp body across the finish line.. it was only 20’ so I don’t understand why he collapsed
 if it happened again.. I’d probably still drag the little mafk across the line for the win
.and all the parents being upset at me
 would still
    Be worth it
