CONGRATS to Robyn Benincasa for setting a Guinness World Record!

Please join us in congratulating Robyn Benincasa for setting a Guinness World Record!

Robyn paddled 195.33 km (121.37 miles) in 24 hours - the farthest distance on record by canoe/kayak on flat water by a female.

Next up?

In June, Robyn plans to set the women's Guinness World Record on the Yukon River for "farthest distance by canoe/kayak in 24 hours on MOVING water" (and we figure she’ll do it, too!).

Huge congrats, Robyn! We’re proud to know you.
