THE POWER OF GUINNESS BOOK OF RECORD

It's so incredible how many Guinness World Records are being broken daily!

No doubt, this just goes a long way to show how creative, wise, and determined humans can be when challenged.

It is always an inspiration to see people pushing the boundaries of what's termed possible in the past years.

For instance, the Cookathon.

I have researched and for some reason, I haven't been able to find any specific information on the first Guinness World Record for a cookathon. But there have been plenty of record-breaking cooking events over the years.

For example, the World Cookathon Challenge is a Guinness World Records-recognized event that's been held in over 40 countries around the world. The challenge involves groups of people cooking meals for charity.

I chose this particular challenge because it is one of the most popular challenges in recent times fire was reignited officially or I will say was made popular by a Nigerian Chef called Hilda Baci who broke the existing cookathon Guinness World record in 2023.

This achievement inspired other chefs around the world and other individuals in their different endeavors including in writing to go with boldness to break the existing Guinness World records in all aspects of life.

There's no doubt that this has shown how intelligent and determined humans can be in achieving their set goals.

In recent times, the challenge has become a motivation even though most countries especially the African countries misuse the opportunity, and instead of seeing it as an avenue to promote hard work, intelligence, and commitment, they now use it to promote hatreď, comparison, etc.

World Guinness record in recent times has been made to look like an undermining one. The pace at which these records are being taken by others daily shows how desperate humans are for the top.

One thing that gives me joy about the challenge is that it isn't as easy as it seems, but it gives each person who engages the visibility he or she needs for the growth of her business.

We could also look at a record related to sports. The Guinness World Record for the fastest 100-meter hurdles by a woman is held by Kendra Harrison, who ran the event in 12.20 seconds. It's an incredible feat of speed and agility.

Kendra Harrison is an American track and field athlete who specializes in the 100-meter hurdles.

In 2016, she set the world record for the fastest time in this event at the London Diamond League, with a time of 12.20 seconds. She broke the previous world record by 0.08 seconds.

She's also won several gold medals at the World Indoor Championships and the Diamond League. It's so inspiring to see how hard work and dedication can lead to amazing achievements!

One of the most impressive current track and field athletes is Sydney McLaughlin. She's a 22-year-old American athlete who specializes in the 400-meter hurdles.

In 2021, she set a world record for this event, with a time of 51.46 seconds. She's also won multiple gold medals at the World Championships and the Diamond League. And she's still so young - it's exciting to see what else she'll achieve in her career shortly.

The Guinness World Record even though is being broken by different individuals on a a daily basis, is a stage for determination and facing the Lion of fear in achieving remarkable achievements.

All thanks to the Guinness Book of Records.
