Jesse Norman judges three-legged race world record attempt


South Herefordshire’s new Conservative MP Jesse Norman was called on this weekend for a tough early assignment–judging a bid for the world’s largest three-legged race at the Much Birch Primary School Family Fun Day.

The school was taking part alongside dozens of other schools across the country in a bid to enter the Guinness Book of World Records, as part of National Family Week. More than 50 pupils, parents and teachers took part in the 200 metre race, which was filmed for the record by WyeNot.com.

Commenting afterwards Jesse said "It’s an honour to be asked to be an official Guinness world record judge for this race, especially since the rulebook is quite fearsome!

"But what a tremendous and hilarious event. Many congratulations to Colin Howard and Caroline Owens, and all the others involved in making this such a special day."
