Carrie Swidecki set a new Guinness World Record by dancing nonstop for nearly six days.

Fourth-grade teacher Carrie Swidecki, 49, has broken a new Guinness World Record by dancing continuously for nearly six days, adding to her 13 dance-related records. Her journey began in 2000 after being discouraged by her performance in Dance Dance Revolution, prompting her to train daily, lose 75 pounds, and place third in a tournament. Since 2011, she has trained up to 45 hours weekly and earned a spot in the International Video Game Hall of Fame. Swidecki plans to compete in the 2027 Olympic Esports Games at age 51, emphasizing that age is no barrier to achievement through perseverance and dedication.
