Success in Track & Field ... and Life

Records are meant to be broken.

But this is ridiculous!

First, George Hood set the world record for the plank in 1 hour, 20 minutes and 5.01 seconds in 2011.

Then, Mao Weidong, a member of the Beijing Police department SWAT team, did 4 hours and 26 minutes in 2014.

Then Hood, a former Marine officer and retired Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent, took back the record in 5 hours 15 minutes and 5 seconds.

5 Hours!  That’s a round of 18 holes in golf for me!
