Real Life is for March: This Leap Day, Set World Records!

The RecordSetter Book of World RecordsIt’s Leap Day! That magical day that comes only once every four years, when we get to make up for the fact that it actually takes the Earth 365 and a quarter days to revolve around the sun by tacking a whole extra day onto the end of February. (Happy birthday, Jerry Gergich!)

In keeping with Leap Day tradition, we here at Workman are celebrating by:

  1. taking leaps—i.e. doing things we wouldn’t usually do.
  2. taking leaps—i.e. jumping over one another like frogs.

But—sorry—we’re not about to show you footage of us leap frogging around the office. So instead, check out these champion Leap Froggers! Eric and Ryan Buffet of Aiken, South Carolina, broke the world record for Most Tandem Leap Frogs in 30 Seconds. The previous record, set by two unknown jumpers at Burning Man, was 25. We think Leap Day William would be proud!

To read about more amazing records, pick up a copy of The Record Setter Book of World Records. And to find more records that are just itching to be broken, visit RecordSetter.com.

    Hey there, I am new to running a blog and internet sites in general and was curious about how you got the “www” included in your web address name? I see your web address, “http://www.workman.com/blog/2012/02/real-life-is-for-march-this-leap-day-set-world-records/” has the www and my domain looks like, “http://mydomain.com”. Do you know exactly how I can change this? I’m using WordPress platform. Many thanks
