How a 61-year-old athlete trained for a five-hour plank

Canadian athlete DonnaJean Wilde completed a five-hour plank at the World Senior Games. The attempt exceeded her existing record, but Guinness confirmation was still pending, making careful health context essential.

Canadian athlete DonnaJean Wilde, 61, held an abdominal plank for five hours at the Huntsman World Senior Games in Utah on October 7. The grandmother of 12 completed the attempt from 3.03 pm to 8.03 pm as spectators encouraged her through the final stretch.

The performance exceeded Wilde’s existing Guinness World Records mark of four hours, 30 minutes and 11 seconds, set in March 2024. However, Guinness had not updated its public record page at the time of writing, so the five-hour attempt should be described as pending official........
