George Hood Approaches Guinness Record

Seventy-two hours into his attempt to break the Guinness Record for endurance spinning, George Hood has covered more than 800 miles, averaged 12.4 mph, pedaled 79 revolutions/minute (that's 341,280 pedal-strokes if you're counting at home) and burned 21,000 calories.

He is slated to break the World Record of 82 hours at 5pm (Central time) today - and officially break it one hour later.

He's also attempting to raise $30,000 in the process for Twin Lakes Camp, a camp owned and operated by Kiwanis International that serves children and young adults with physical handicaps and crippling diseases.
