This just in from IR Team Member and USA Wildwater Team Member Jeremy Rodgers:
Hi IR,
Just got word yesterday that Andy Corra’s record has been certified by Guinness after 10 weeks of credentialing! He is now the new world record holder for “Longest Distance by Kayak in a 24 hr Period”.
May I take this opportunity to also acknowledge fellow Boulderite and long time record holder/adventure racing icon Ian Adamson who originally set, reset, and held the untouchable record for over a decade prior to Andy’s attempt. I see some healthy attempts in the near future. You can view details of the adventure that took place on the Yukon River in Canada by clicking on the link below.
