My guinness record





This is about a run I did from Freiburg over the 3 highest mountains of the Black Forest, in an attempt to set a record for Guinness. They've accepted the record, though the decision whether or not to put it in the book is pending. This attempt was made to raise funds for the Children's Cancer Fund.
