GWR: Kenyan chef reportedly suffers medical emergency while attempting to break longest cooking marathon record

Popular Kenyan chef, Maliha Mohammed, who embarked on a Cook-a-thon to break the Guinness World Record, has suffered a setback due to a medical emergency.

Maliha initiated the challenge on November 15 aimed at surpassing the current 119-hour, 57-minute and 16-second mark and was diligently updating her progress for fans.

Seeking to exceed the existing Guinness World record set by Alan Fisher (Ireland), her attempt took an unexpected turn when a medical emergency occurred after she crossed the 111-hour.

A video shared on her Instagram stories showed Maliha unconscious on a stretcher. Despite the setback, she conveyed her determination that the emergency would not signal the end of the cooking marathon.

“I am a conqueror and a marathon runner. Nothing is bringing us down; to the finish line, we go,” she wrote.
