CASE STUDIES
Records in practice.
Some records were broken. Some weren’t.
Each attempt created an opportunity to set a meaningful target, prepare for something difficult, measure progress and learn what happens when the challenge becomes real.
The result matters. So does everything that happens on the way there.
FROM RECORD HOLDER TO RECORD BUILDER
I don’t just set records. I help other people pursue theirs.
From individual athletes to an entire school, I’ve helped people identify records worth pursuing, prepare for the attempt and experience what happens when a meaningful target becomes real. Some attempts ended with a world record. Some didn’t. Both taught me what a record can create.
Organizational Record Attempt
Monroe Elementary
675 students. One shared record attempt.
A Minnesota elementary school brought hundreds of students together around a Guinness World Records attempt, giving me an early look at what a large-scale shared record experience could require.
Adaptive Record Attempt
Theo
Breaking barriers — and world records.
I helped Theo prepare for his first world record attempt, which grew into multiple records supported by his school and community.
Coached Record Attempt
Ashley
Six records. One shared attempt.
Ashley and I trained together for a series of inline skating records and ultimately set six Guinness World Records between us.
Youth Record Attempt
Lucas
Six Records in One Pursuit.
Lucas worked toward a series of record attempts that ultimately resulted in six world records and recognition as CTV’s Athlete of the Week.
Adaptive Record Attempt
Kanen
Breaking barriers — and world records.
Kanen prepared for and established multiple wheelchair flying disc records, supported by his family, school and community.
Coached Record Attempt
Jennie & Jill
Six records. One shared attempt.
Jennie & Jill prepared for a shared record event at Edmonton’s Silver Skate Festival and successfully established four WFDF world records.
Youth Record Attempt
Kyla & Payten
The Attempt Still Matters
Kyla and Payten pursued world record attempts with the support of their school community. The records weren’t broken, but the experience became part of how I learned to think about the value of the pursuit itself.
THE PATTERN
Different records. The same underlying process.
The people, records and outcomes were different, but the pattern kept repeating: choose a meaningful target, find a believable path toward it, measure progress through personal bests, adjust when things don’t work, and keep going.
Every world record starts with a personal best.
Those experiences became part of the foundation for World Record Mindset™.
YOUR NEXT RECORD
What could your next record be?
Whether it’s a world record, an organizational record or a personal best, the first step is identifying a target worth changing for.
