A challenge between friends, 7 months of training and more than 21 kilometers on stilts to achieve a Guinness World Record

Belgian runner Jonathan Engels, 32, has achieved a Guinness World Record by completing the Skylux Half Marathon in Kortrijk, Belgium, on stilts. After a challenge among friends and seven months of training, Engels successfully covered a distance of more than 21 kilometers in a time of two hours.

This feat stands alongside unrelated major sports coverage from the same news feed detailing international football events, specifically Spain's victory over Croatia in the UEFA Nations League. That match highlighted standout performances by the Spanish national team and player Lamine Yamal, who scored his first brace for the national side and discussed his ambitions regarding the Ballon d'Or.
