Irishman Eamonn Keaveny has once again become a Guinness World Record holder.

He managed to ride a unicycle across Ireland in 5 days, 5 hours and 23 minutes.

This time was enough to cover 613 kilometers on a unicycle.

The journey started at Mizen Head, which is the southernmost point of Ireland, and finished at Malin Head, which, accordingly, took on the role of the northernmost point.

To set the record, the man had to train hard for several years.

He started, of course, by mastering the skill of riding a unicycle.

Then he started practicing and eventually, after some time, he was able to ride a unicycle for at least 100 kilometers a day.

Eamonn's several attempts to set the record ended in failure, but he eventually achieved what he wanted.

True, he paid a high price for this: during the marathon, his left ankle became very swollen, and he was unable to walk normally for the next two weeks.
