It's not easy getting a Guinness World Record.

You might have to hold your breath for 20 minutes or eat 80 hot dogs in one sitting, or you could create your own original world record and make it uniquely painful.

That's what Gabriel Wall did when she chose to set the first-ever record for the fastest 100-meter sprint barefoot on Lego bricks.

I know.

Her training included jumping up and down in a kiddie pool filled with Legos.

Wall also went barefoot for months, and when she explained that she was training to sprint over Legos, people inevitably asked, why would you do that?

Why?

Naysayers notwithstanding, Wall completed the spiky sprint in 24.75 seconds.

Her husband immediately presented her with fluffy pink slippers that she'll probably never take off again.

Thank you.

You can share it with your backup.

Like, wear the medal on the daily.

Just wear it around everywhere.

Is her first word gonna be gnarly?

I hope it's mom.

But then gnarly.

This makes me love him even more.

Yeah.

My childhood home was for sale.

And I went to look at it.
