[juggle] New joggling world record!

[Greg Phillips]

Dear Jugglers

I have just learned that this morning at the Scotiabank Torontol  
Waterfront Marathon, Michal Kapral of Toronto set a new world record  
for joggling the Marathon with a time of 2:50:09. w00T! (Joggling, in  
case you didn't know, is juggling while jogging --- or in Michal's  
case, juggling while running really, really fast.) Michal finished  
44th overall in a field of 2099. And of course, it goes without  
saying that all 43 ahead of him were running the boring way, without  
juggling.

This obliterates the previous record of 2:52:15 set by Zach Warren of  
Boston in the Philadelphia Marathon of 2006 and puts the record back  
where it belongs, in Canadian hands. Michal and Zach have been  
trading the record back and forth for a few years now; I believe that  
this is the third time Michal has held the record. Michal also holds  
the 10km joggling world record, with a time of 36:27.

Michal's blog, with his announcement, is here:
