As discussed in previous cream cracker World Record attempt posts, I want to be known as the fastest cream cracker eater in the west. And in the east too because if you can’t conquer both, you can’t be a world record holder.
I’ve been practicing for a while to get my technique right but attempt #1 went pretty badly. The last time I checked the record was at 47 seconds and I stopped the clock as it went sailing past the minute marker. I felt that not only had I let everyone else down, but I’d let myself down. I’d done a Greg Louganis and that elusive world record just seemed miles away.
But last night I thought I’d give it a last go before hanging up my boots (crackers).
And I only went and bloomin did it! 46.27 seconds. Eat that Ambrose Mendy. In. Your. Face.
Ok. So it wasn’t under test conditions, I hadn’t got lab technicians in white coats timing it to the exact split second and I probably had a trailing wind behind me, but it’s the first time in this attempt that I’ve gone below 50 seconds!
I think I’ve found my magic formula and I will be making another attempt tonight just to make sure that it wasn’t a fluke (or the stopwatch app on my phone isn’t dodgy).

Rich, what’s your update on this World Record attempt?
Not had an attempt since, but I’m due to have another go this weekend. Last practice run before the official attempt!
So when’s the official ‘white coat’ date Mr Dedication?
One more practice run this weekend and then it’s the real thing next week! This time next week I could be a world record holder!
