Kerry family go the extra mile in their Goal of more records 

Eamonn the fastest 1-mile crawl, Sandra the fastest mile carrying a 40lb backpack, Jason the fastest mile dribbling a basketball, and Nathan the fastest mile carrying a 100lb backpack. Picture: Leon Farrell/Photocall Ireland.

Attempting to set the fastest time ever to crawl or dribble a basketball for a mile, or carrying sacks of up to 100lbs in the quickest time, is all in a day's work for one Kerry family and their devotion to good causes.

The Hickson family from Annascaul will undertake their latest world record-breaking attempts to promote the annual Goal Mile, which will be virtual this year in light of the Covid-19 pandemic.
