Patrick Amenuvor, the man who started an attempt to break the Guinness World Record (GWR) for the longest-standing marathon by an individual in Accra( Stand-a-thon) has ended his challenge abruptly after about four hours into the attempt.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mr Amenuvor was expected to stand from today, January 14 to Sunday, January 21, 2024 in his bid to set a new world record.<\/p>\n

He explained that he had broken some rules regarding governing the Standathon challenge and had to call it off to save his integrity.<\/p>\n

\u201cDue to my integrity and desire to win by fair play, I wish to inform all of my intention to stop my OFFICIAL STAND-A-THON attempt due to some rules I\u2019ve broken which might sabotage my efforts to break the record.<\/p>\n

At this point, I deem it fit to get back with my team to review our attempt so far and make sure to avoid any errors that may hinder my future attempt, \u201d he announced in a release to the public.<\/p>\n

Mr Amenuvor\u2019s attempt came after a sing-a-thon attempt, a lipstick-applying attempt and a Cook-a-thon attempt by other Ghanaians.<\/p>\n
