Oshkosh siblings set Guinness record at Fox Cities Marathon

A belated congratulations is due to to all 13 members of the Weisse family of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, for completing the Fox Cities Marathon and thereby earning themselves a Guinness Book record.

Ages 33 to 54, they became the largest group of siblings to finish a marathon, beating a record of 12 set by another family at the 2005 Dublin Marathon.

A preview of the record-setting attempt was written by Tom Held at the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. The story was picked up by National Public Radio, too. Listen to the NPR report here.
