A MARTIAL arts school is hoping to make the Guinness Book of Records after holding a class lasting 29 hours.
The Julian Hitch Martial Art Schools of Excellence, which meets in Letchworth Drive, Bromley, claims to have broken the record for the longest ever marathon martial art and exercise class.
Its 33 participants, each pledged to raise a minimum of £250 in sponsorship, and together achieved a total of £10,000 - twice its original fundraising target - to be donated to St Michael’s Hospice, based in Hastings.
They trained from 10am on April 24 until 3pm the following day and were allowed just five minutes break per hour, including to eat and go the toilet.

Do not know if that actually is the record being as many people do not let Guinness know what they are doing BUT I I do congratulate the class for their achievement
