Egg and Spoon Race

Written by UAT Staff Writer | Apr 1, 2021 11:34:28 PM

Don’t crack under pressure as students dash about! Once described as sporting events by Wikipedia, egg-and-spoon races may seem over-easy on the surface, but they aren’t for the faint of heart or the cracked yolk.

Even Guinness World Records has published a number of world records related to egg-and-spoon racing. Surprisingly, these are mostly held by one serial record-holder and egg-obsessed New Yorker Ashrita Furman. He holds multiple records for the fastest 100 meter and mile egg-and-spoon race, including holding the spoon with one hand, both hands and his mouth.

Grab your reliable silver spoon and steady your steps, but don’t lose your balance or humpty dumpty might fall and not get back up again.
