Happy (belated) New Year!
For the start of the new year, I wanted to share a bit of my journey from last year, where I made an attempt to break a Guinness World Record in memory.
Specifically the record was: the most cards memorized underwater in a single breath.
I love the idea of this record because it combines both the physical and mental. I'm pretty good at memorizing cards, but not very good at holding my breath--something I had to train. I also wanted to raise awareness for Alzheimer's disease, so I attempted the record last November, during National Alzheimer's Awareness Month.
I don't want to give away the whole story here, but please check out the landing page for the event, which was sponsored by Mind Lab Pro:
Also, here's a recap of the entire event and how it went down! It didn't all go according to plan, but I made the best of it. Watch what happened here, and see if I actually ended up breaking the record!
