Victoria lawyer attempts to break Guinness World Record for running marathon in a business suit


It's the World’s Fastest Law Suit! On Sunday, October 7, Adam Campbell will race in the Goodlife Fitness Victoria Marathon and attempt to beat the Guinness World Record for being the fastest man in history to run a marathon in a business suit.

Adam is not only a world class ultramarathon runner and an all-around remarkable individual; he is also an associate lawyer with Hemminger Schmid Lawyers and Mediators. And as a person who cares deeply about his community, he is running to raise awareness and funds for Access Pro Bono.

Hemminger Schmid-- a Victoria law firm with its own strong ties to its community-- is extremely proud to welcome Adam as the newest member of its legal team, and to support him in achieving his goals.

Adam is quite confident that he will be able to break the record of 3 hr 24 min 46 sec, currently held by Paul Buchanan. Buchanan made this time running in the Adidas Dublin Marathon in Dublin, Ireland on October 26, 2009. So, watch out, Victorians! On October 7, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the Hemminger Schmid team of Campbell supporters-- decked out in their bright orange team t-shirts!

Go, Adam, go!
