Five charities have issued a challenge to sporting enthusiasts in Galway to join them in a fundraising Guinness world record attempt – ‘We’re Planking it’.
The record which they are attempting to break is for the most people holding the abdominal plank position. It is being undertaken under the stewardship of local couple Sene and George Naoupu and a team of fitness instructors from their health and lifestyle business.
The benefiting charities include Self Help Africa, the Irish Heart Foundation, COPE Galway, ACT for Meningitis and Special Olympics Connaught.
