Sports: July 2007 Archives

BY TODD M. ADAMS

Beginning Tuesday, July 10, Aurora resident George Hood will attempt to break the world record for consecutive hours on an exercise bike. His goal is to spin for 100 hours, well over the current mark of 82 hours. Hood begins his quest Tuesday at 7 a.m., and expects to finish Saturday around 7:30 p.m. While we will be keeping up with Hood via stories in our print edition, we’ve asked Hood to provide us with Internet updates throughout his ride. He agreed and will post updates in the “comments” portion of this blog every day in the morning, afternoon and evening.
