The Pickle Breakers Team

I try my best everyday to never let them down or regret the sacrifice they made for us.

Record attempt history:

Found out about the Guinness World Record for Longest Marathon playing pickleball in Missoula, Montana.  Met and played with one the record holders during my 50 States of pickleball journey.  Dory told me that she was a World Record holder but she thought the record had been broken by a team in the United Kingdom.  SO we looked it up on the Guinness website and it was true.  A team had beaten her record with a total time of 34 hours and 5 minutes.  I remember telling her that day, I plan to break that record and bring it back to the US.  This was always in the back of my mind traveling to my other destinations to play pickleball.
