by isleofman.com 5th October 2009

The countdown is on for an attempt by Barclays Wealth Management to beat the world three-legged record.

The event, at Noble's Park this Sunday, October 11, is in aid of Wish Upon a Dream, the company's Charity of the Year.

To break the record, over 190 couples must run 250 metres and remain tied together for the full distance.

The entry fee is ?20 per couple and all proceeds will go to the charity.

To encourage younger runners, Barclays has pledged to pay the entry fees for all participants under the age of 18.
