MILK – A REAL RECORD BREAKER
Milk is amazing stuff: it’s packed with vitamins and
minerals, it’s been drunk by humans for over 10,000 years and you can turn it
into everything from strawberry ice cream to stilton cheese. There have been a
lot of world records set for everything to do with milk, dairies and cows. We
thought we’d share a few of them in the lead up to October half term so the
kids can surprise family and friends when they’re next reaching for that cool
bottle of Creamline milk from the fridge...

Dairy Daredevils

· The fastest ever recorded time for a marathon run in a dairy outfit was broken by American runner Joseph D’Amico in March 2013 when he managed to complete a full 26 miles in 3 hours and 9 minutes – all whilst dressed as a milkshake.
