A man in outback Queensland has endured blistering sun and heavy rain to set the world record for the longest continuous game of lawn bowls. Cloncurry Bowls Club manager Shayne Barwick started on Friday morning and played for 73 hours, rolling his final ball at 10:00am today in front of a cheering crowd of supporters.
He took on the challenge to raise $20,000 for a verandah over his club's disability ramp. Mr Barwick said he was relieved it was over and he would be going to the pub to have a beer, cigar and relax.
Mr Barwick said he originally read that 73 hours was the world record, but he later realised that no such record existed. The longest game Mr Barwick had played until now lasted between eight to 12 hours, although afterwards he felt fine and ready to continue. Ambulance crews monitored the event, as did officials to make sure the attempt was legitimate.
Mr Barwick was able to take a 10-minute break every four hours, during which he was able to get massages. Meals were brought to him on the lawn, where he also guzzled water and sports drinks.Like all other drugs, it has certain side effects and are robertrobb.com cost cialis thus recommended for people with colon complications.
